Tech, Hugs & Rock’n’roll 🏴☠️
Tech Hugs is a main event at Oslo Innovation Week!
Tech, Hugs & Rock'n'roll is Norway's long-running afterwork party for the startup and tech community, hosted by 6AM together with Snartup and Gründergarasjen. We're inviting techies, founders, investors, partners, and other troublemakers for a supercharged evening at Mesh Youngstorget to celebrate everything happening in the ecosystem right now.
The evening kicks off with Snartup (18-19, register here: Event link), followed by an informal stage segment at 19:30 with highlights from Norwegian startups, an open mic where anyone can share something they're proud of, and, of course, music!
Everyone's welcome, no membership required. Your ticket converts into a drink voucher at the bar when you arrive! 💃
Speakers:
Håvard Lystrup - CEO & Co-founder @Bev/Art
Julian Alexander Hahn - CEO & Co-founder @Wybe
Lars Planke - CEO & Co-founder @Peers
Katrina Thunem - CEO & Co-founder @Clarvia
🎤 Live music alert: we're thrilled to have Jesper Jenset taking the stage at Tech Hugs & Rock'n Roll! He's the guy behind songs like "Seint i September", "Bad Vibrations", and "High". Come sing along!
