Start-up and Investor Meetup … | Partiful

From Spotify and Klarna to Lovable and Legora, Sweden has consistently produced some of the world's most defining tech companies. Now, the next generation is in town.

SF Tech Week is about deal flow, and this is where you find it. We are bringing over 40 of Sweden’s hottest, hand-picked startups straight to the Bay Area, and we are inviting our entire network of US investors—from angel syndicates to late-stage mega-funds—to come meet them.

Whether you are a founder looking for your lead investor or a VC hunting for the next Nordic unicorn, this is the room you need to be in. Come experience the "Swedish Tech Wonder" firsthand.

The Powerhouse Speakers: Before the mixing begins, we'll hear rapid-fire insights on cross-border scaling, data trends, and the transatlantic venture landscape from heavy-hitters in the ecosystem:

Rickard Steiber (Luminar Ventures) - The Nordic VC. Bringing the ground truth from one of Sweden's leading early-stage funds, he knows exactly what it takes to spot and scale European winners.

Jeanie Fang (Crunchbase) - The Data Master. As Director of Data & AI at Crunchbase, she has the ultimate birds-eye view of where the venture money is actually flowing and what sectors are heating up.

Dan Glazer (Wilson Sonsini) - The Transatlantic Architect. A Partner at the premier tech law firm, he is the go-to expert for European founders raising US capital and scaling globally.

Victor Nilsson (Wilson Sonsini) - The Cross-Border Closer. Also a Partner at Wilson Sonsini, he brings deep tactical expertise in structuring the deals that bring Nordic innovation to the US market.
