The Startup Spotlight 2023


THE Startup spotlight was a success!

The Startup Spotlight, organized by Urban Tech Helsinki, is an annual event that shines a spotlight on our promising startups. This year, we were happy to join the Helsinki Lounge at the Slush conference venue. Selected startups showcased their innovations, connected with potential investors and stakeholders, and gained valuable exposure.

The event was hosted by Kamilla Sultanova, a dynamic event host and award-winning keynote speaker, who brings her expertise in diversity, equity, and inclusion and her work with Finnish cities to the forefront of the urban tech space.
