Board Summit 2025
— Leading through uncertainty and boardroom challenges
Board Summit 2025 is an official conference at TechBBQ — the Nordic region’s largest tech and innovation conference, gathering 10,000+ participants and media from all over the world. Hosted by Boardway.
Join the most forward-thinking leaders, founders, executives, and board professionals alongside Boardway and partners for an intensive 1-day summit focused on how to lead from the boardroom in a changing world.
"Board Summit 2025 is more than a gathering – it’s a chance to rethink what leadership can look like."
- Avnit Singh | CEO, TechBBQ
Why attend
We believe the decisions made in boardrooms ripple throughout organizations shaping how problems are solved, which challenges are prioritized and opportunities are seized. Too much potential still goes untapped in boardrooms.
How to attend
Board Summit is hosted inside the TechBBQ venue. Admission is free, but access requires a valid TechBBQ ticket (all ticket types accepted).
