Testimonials from investors
We look forward to Iceland Innovation Week every year, not only for the fun events but the genuine connections, networking, and investment opportunities. We invested in a startup who went through our New Nordics Challengers Program as a result from connections made during IIW.
— Kevin Chavanne, Investment Manager at Trinity VC
Attending Iceland Innovation Week has had a substantial impact for our fund, Anthos. While we haven’t yet deployed capital in Iceland, our involvement with IIW has opened doors to 9 Icelandic companies and 7 more from across the Nordics—introductions we wouldn’t have had otherwise. Connections we've made in Iceland have also served as diligence resources or facilitated introductions around 30 times in the past 2.5 years. This event has offered remarkable ROI for our team, underscoring the ripple effects and value of being part of the IIW community.
