Access the Next Frontier of Deal Flow & R&D: Armenia x Nordics - STOCKHOLM
A delegation of 7 leaders from Armenia's tech and investment ecosystem is coming to Stockholm to share what's moving on the ground and to meet a curated group of Nordic investors, scaleup operators, and innovation teams.
Featured on the floor:
BANA Angels: Armenia's first angel network. $4M across 36 startups; the country's largest angel exit on record at 20x.
Formula VC: Armenia's most active VC. $30M Fund II currently deploying.
UATE: high-tech industry association: 270+ companies, ~70% of Armenia's top 1,000 taxpayers.
Armenian Innovation Foundation: one of Armenia’s key public-private partnership mechanisms for shaping, validating, and packaging national programs in AI, semiconductors, robotics, and advanced technologies.
AICA: Angel network with +50 angels and +30 portfolio companies, connecting national and international capital to founders on the ground.
Eqwefy: The investment platform giving international investors structured access to Armenia's vetted startup pipeline.
Why now
Armenia is at an inflection. The country just secured $4B+ in AI infrastructure, including NVIDIA's $500M data center in-country, and the past 18 months have produced a $10B tech IPO and a 20x angel exit. Engineering talent is among the most cost-efficient in Europe, and the country is rapidly deepening its alignment with the EU and US.
This is a window for first movers, not a permanent feature.
What you'll take away
This is not a traditional pitching event. Instead:
Quick pitches from the Armenian delegation - what they're investing in, what they're building, and what's coming through their pipeline next
Concrete view of Armenia's R&D and engineering substrate - relevant if you're considering a dev center, AI compute partner, or eng-capacity expansion outside Western Europe
Direct, structured networking with the funds, agencies, and operators driving the ecosystem
The room is intentionally compact and curated. Best fit:
Investors: Angel investors, VC partners (Seed - Series B), angel-network leaders, corporate VCs, family offices with active tech thesis
Scaleups & Tech Companies: actively exploring dev centers, R&D outposts, or AI / engineering capacity outside the Nordics
Corporate Innovation: large organizations focusing on R&D and startups/scaleups
Ecosystem Anchors: Stockholm/Nordic accelerators, incubators, hubs, science parks, and innovation agencies
