BALTICLAB
AFTER
We believe that young, creative minds in the Baltic Sea region can drive
innovation and expand cooperation. For a fourth year running, Balticlab
hence brings entrepreneurs and creatives in the Baltic Sea region together
to prototype the future and build a community of talented individuals, who
through collaboration empower the region to become more innovative,
creative and prosperous.
The Balticlab 4.0 Networking Weekend will include workshops & training
sessions with practical advice from experts in the region from creative
industries and the start-up scene. Inspirational individuals will share their
professional experiences, as well as perspectives on collaboration and
cooperation. This is an opportunity for you to push your own ideas further,
but also to gain new contacts and be inspired by other like-minded
individuals in the region.
Balticlab Networking Weekend is only the first step in the Balticlab
experience. Similar to last year, Balticlab will also be continuing in the
form of a project-development programme titled Balticlab Ideation in
March 2016. Hence we will also be selecting around 30 participants from
the Networking Weekend, who we would like to see continue working with
us throughout spring 2016.
