LP experience - Norway edition
Ferd and partners invite a select group of international LPs to a curated capital experience along the southern Norwegian coastline, connected to The Foundry.
This is an invitation-only program designed for LPs who want structured insight into the Nordic venture market and direct access to institutional allocators, family offices and leading GPs in a focused setting outside the noise of larger conferences.
Here's a more visual presentation
Why Attend
The program is designed to help LPs assess:
Current allocation strategies among European pension funds and family offices
Market dynamics shaping Nordic venture
Why deep tech, defence, robotics and industrial technology dominate fund strategies
How the Nordics complement broader European venture exposure
The experience combines structured capital discussions with curated peer exchange.
