Well, hello 👋
Nordic Hardtech is live!
The podcast sparked it—our platform keeps it going. Hardtech matters. It’s critical. It’s tough. And it needs a home. Through over 20 deep-dive founder talks, one thing is clear: physical tech is key to Nordic growth, climate transition, and resilience. But it’s hard—and still under-supported.
That’s why we’re here. Nordic Hardtech is a community for builders of complex tech companies based on physical products. Our mission: to inspire, share knowledge, and grow the hardtech ecosystem through podcasts, newsletters, events, and more.
This newsletter brings you the latest from across the Nordic hardtech scene.
Glad you’re with us—let’s build this thing together.
