Together with TechSavvy and TechBBQ, Mesh has launched a new monthly Afterwork series for the Nordic startup scene. Translation: recurring IRL bandwidth for founders, investors, and operators who need to touch grass (or at least a cold beer).

​Join us every last Thursday of the month - see you there!

Hosted by our partner Kromann Reumert at their brand-new offices, this is a closed-door evening curated for the investors who are actively shaping the Nordic startup ecosystem. Good food, the right people, and real conversation - before the festival takes over the city.

​We're keeping it small on purpose. This is about quality time with the right crowd, not another networking reception.

​Organised by Startup Aarhus · Facilitated by Founderment & Delphinus Venture Capital · Hosted by our partner Kromann Reumert

Faster Innovation Through Startup Collaboration

Before heading to SMIL, members of the Corporate Venturing Network are invited to join a focused pre-event exploring how corporates can work more strategically with startups through venture clienting.

Led by Combient Foundry, the session will take a deeper dive into what venture clienting is, why it matters and how organisations can use it as a practical approach to innovation and collaboration. The session will cover concrete methods, best practices and real-world cases, giving participants insight into how successful corporates engage startups to solve real business challenges faster.

The pre-event runs alongside a parallel startup session focused on selling to corporates, creating a shared foundation before both groups continue to SMIL together.

​During the lunch, you will also get a feel for Founders Growth Club: a curated community for Danish scaleups, backed by experienced founders who help navigate the realities of scaling.

Built to move the startup ecosystem forward fast, SMIL brings the right people together in new, meaningful ways through smaller, curated, participatory formats designed to create real momentum, serious value and a lot of fun for startups from Aarhus and beyond.

A smile lowers barriers and opens the door to real conversations. Danish icon Victor Borge famously said, “A smile is the shortest distance between two people.” That spirit sits at the heart of SMIL.

And Aarhus is the right place for it: close, collaborative, talent dense, and built on trust. A place where supporting each other is the default and success is often shared.

Come together. Come to SMIL! ▽

​For Scaleups in Aarhus #4, the format is simple. We bring the right people together and focus on what actually matters right now.

​We are currently shaping the main topic for the day, but whatever it is, it will be relevant for you who are in the middle of scaling.

​After a short session, we will break into smaller leader groups where you will be matched with others navigating similar challenges. This is where the real conversations happen. Concrete dilemmas, decisions and experiences shared with people who understand your reality.
