End of TINC Silicon Valley Spring 2024! This five-week program has just wrapped up, ending with a wonderful celebration at the residence of Gry Rabe Henriksen, hosted by the Royal Norwegian Consulate General in San Francisco. It was a beautiful evening dedicated to acknowledging the achievements of our top Nordic startups. The night was filled with joy as we celebrated the remarkable progress of these founders. We also had the opportunity to reconnect with TINC alumnus Mike Long, CEO Kosli, during his session with Koslis San Francisco-based investor, Heavybit. Listening to Mike share his experiences as a Nordic founder in the US, and hearing Heavybit's perspective on investing in Nordic companies, was most inspiring. Some of the startups will remain in the Bay Area this week to engage with other founders and investors. If you're interested in connecting, don't hesitate to reach out.
