Global Startup Ecosystem Mixer 2025 🌎 - Invite-only | Helsinki, Finland

Are you building startup communities?
Are you investing in startups?
Are you running startup programs?
Are you on a mission to help startups grow?

If the answer is yes, then this is the right event for you!

Maria 01 — one of Europe’s leading startup communities — is excited to host our annual Global Startup Ecosystem Mixer on 18 November (Day 0 of Slush). We’re bringing together peers from across the startup landscape: VCs, seed funds, startup hubs, accelerators, incubators, and tech event organisers. The goal? To strengthen ties, share ideas, and expand our networks of trusted ecosystem leaders.

As always, there will be plenty of refreshments and drinks on hand. We can’t think of a better way to kick off Slush week than by gathering with the people who keep this ecosystem thriving. Last year, we brought together nearly 200 guests from 35 countries, representing over 150 key ecosystem organisations.

What to expect:

• This event is all about high-quality networking in an intimate setting. Every guest has been carefully selected, and we’re excited to connect you with peers from Finland, Sweden, Estonia, Denmark, Germany, France, Iceland, Norway, the UK, Japan, Singapore, and beyond.
  
  

• It’s the perfect opportunity to learn, share, and spark new ecosystem partnerships. Whether you’re expanding an existing network or building one from scratch, this is your moment to start creating meaningful connections with like-minded peers.
