Is your inno­v­a­tive health solu­tion already gain­ing momen­tum at home? Are you look­ing to expand into the Nordic region and need expert feed­back on how to enter suc­cess­ful­ly? Then the Nordic Boost­er Board is the per­fect oppor­tu­ni­ty for you!

When: Jan­u­ary 2027, weeks 2 and 3

Where: Teams

Appli­ca­tion dead­line: 20 Novem­ber 2026. See reg­is­tra­tion links below.

The Nordic coun­tries are well advanced in intro­duc­ing dig­i­tal health solu­tions and are lead­ers in imple­men­ta­tion and use. For many Finnish com­pa­nies, the Nordic coun­tries are an impor­tant strate­gic area for export. But what should be your first step when enter­ing the Swedish mar­ket? Or what should you pay par­tic­u­lar atten­tion to when you want to expand your busi­ness to Nor­way?

Get answers to ques­tions like these and many oth­ers by join­ing the Nordic Boost­er Board!

Build­ing on the suc­cess from the pre­vi­ous rounds of Nordic Boost­er Boards since 2021, clus­ters from the Nordic coun­tries have again joined forces to offer this oppor­tu­ni­ty to new com­pa­nies that would ben­e­fit from feed­back from peo­ple with in-depth under­stand­ing of the mar­ket they are look­ing to enter.

What is a Boost­er Board?

Nordic Boost­er Board is a dig­i­tal are­na where you, togeth­er with oth­er Nordic Com­pa­nies, get the oppor­tu­ni­ty to pitch your solu­tion in front of a pan­el of experts from Swe­den or Nor­way.

Each expert pan­el is the­mat­ic, focus­ing on either

• spe­cial­ist health­care or
• pri­ma­ry care/home-based/­com­mu­ni­ty care solu­tions

Depend­ing on your solution/product, select the market/country you are inter­est­ed in (Swe­den or Nor­way) and the rel­e­vant theme.

If you are select­ed, you will meet experts that will give you feed­back on your solution’s best mar­ket entry approach and mar­ket fit.

Each pan­el con­sists of 4–5 experts from the health ser­vice; from pub­lic and pri­vate health­care actors as well as from nation­al clusters/business orga­ni­za­tions.   

You will attend the cho­sen Boost­er Board ses­sion with com­pa­nies from either Swe­den or Nor­way. This gives you the oppor­tu­ni­ty to learn from Nordic peers and net­work across bor­ders.

As a par­tic­i­pant, you are expect­ed to:

• Decide which expert pan­el you want to meet — by coun­try (Swe­den or Nor­way) and by theme (spe­cial­ist health­care, or pri­ma­ry care/home-based/­com­mu­ni­ty care) — and fill out the reg­is­tra­tion form below
• Pre­pare and sub­mit a pre­sen­ta­tion + 2–3 ques­tions no lat­er than 18 Decem­ber 2026 to lm@norwayhealthtech.com
• Join a 30-minute prepa­ra­tion webi­nar on 3 Decem­ber 2026, 9am (TBC), togeth­er with par­tic­i­pat­ing com­pa­nies from all Nordic coun­tries
• help observe the oth­er com­pa­nies that par­tic­i­pate in the Boost­er Board
• give feed­back to each oth­er in a closed meet­ing for the com­pa­nies only imme­di­ate­ly after the Boost­er Board is com­plet­ed

Goal and for­mat:

The goal of the Boost­er Board ses­sion is to confirm/assess prod­uct-mar­ket fit. Each com­pa­ny gets 20 min­utes to pitch and receive feed­back, with­in a 2‑hour dig­i­tal ses­sion, with a total of 6 com­pa­nies par­tic­i­pat­ing.

Com­pa­ny pro­file:

• Field (key­words): dig­i­tal health, health tech, wel­fare prod­ucts, assis­tive devices, mHealth, home reha­bil­i­ta­tion, con­nect­ed devices, pre­ven­tive health (no stand-alone Apps), etc
• Stage of devel­op­ment: prod­ucts close to mar­ket or on the mar­ket, good trac­tion in home mar­ket
• Com­pa­ny inter­ests: routes for mar­ket access in the Nordics, con­crete cus­tomer needs, routes for prod­uct validation/test with tar­get cus­tomers, part­ner­ship with Nordic com­pa­nies, inno­va­tion part­ner­ships.
