Slush - Investor Day at Finlandia Hall

Slush Investor Day was hosted at Finlandia Hall as the official opening of Slush Week in Helsinki. The event is recognized as Europe’s leading gathering for venture capital investors, bringing together over 2,000 top-tier LPs (Limited Partners), GPs (General Partners) and other Slush visitors with investor passes under one roof.

Held on November 17 the Investor Day is a fully curated, investor-only format — with no startups and no media present — focusing entirely on high-level discussion, strategic networking, and relationship building.
