This is now the fourth year that the Nordic Startup Awards are being held, and this year they will take place in Iceland on the 31st of May, the day after the Startup Iceland conference. If you have ever been looking for an excuse to visit Iceland, it doesn’t get much better than this. Two back-to-back startup events will introduce you to some of the coolest startups and startup people not only from Iceland but from across the Nordics and from all over the world, as there is a lineup of great speakers and guests from the global startup community. So do not waste any more time and start booking your tickets for Startup Iceland and the Nordic Startup Awards.
Currently, voting is underway for the national nominees in each country. The categories are:
Startup of the Year
Best Newcomer
Best Bootstrapped
Best Investment Company
Best Business Angel
Founder of the Year
CTO Hero of the Year
Startup Media of the Year
Best Office Space
Best Accelerator Program
Best Social Tech Startup
Best IoT Startup
Best Exponential Startup
There are five nominees from each country in each category. In the weeks leading up to the finals, each country will hold national finales to pick the winners in each group. Then, at the grand finale in Iceland, the overall international winners will be announced.
There are very few events in the Nordics that manage to bring together such a great collection of startup enthusiasts, making this a must-attend event.
This year, I am very happy that my blog, Viking Entrepreneur, has been nominated in the Startup Media of the Year category, and I am truly honored to be in a group with such fantastic people. If you would like to vote for Viking Entrepreneur, any of the other nominees, or simply read about them, you can do so here: http://nordicstartupawards.com/vote.
I really hope to see you all at both Startup Iceland and the Nordic Startup Awards in May!
