Hope in Action is more than a slogan.
It is an expectation. About taking a stand, choosing
a direction, and doing something about it.
You may have attended the Nordic Edge Expo before, we have after all done this since 2015.
In May, you'll encounter something new.
We have redefined the Nordic Edge Expo from an exhibition to an impact conference for leaders, cities, and businesses that truly need to change the way they work, govern, and invest.

Why attend?
When we get together, we create new ideas, initiatives and actions for the future. Nordic Edge Expo is the most important cross-sectoral meeting place, where people from all sectors of society connect. We believe this is key for driving societal impact.
Nordic Edge Expo is the Nordic cross-sectoral meeting place for smart and sustainable societies.
We connect leaders, entrepreneurs, decision-makers and capital to create new partnerships and actions.
For the 2026 Expo, we explore how to shift our communities to be regenerative, resilient and inclusive. Where we live and how we want to live shapes our actions.
Hope in Action
The world is shifting.
And the choices ahead are anything but simple.
We feel the weight of our time: rising tides, growing inequality, pressure on resources, and systems stretched to their limits.
But in every challenge, there’s a spark. Shaped by the people who refuse to look away. Hope, in this context, is not optimism. It’s defiance.
A refusal to accept the status quo.
A willingness to challenge how we lead, collaborate, build and invest.
A belief that better futures don’t appear – they are shaped.
Hope for us isn’t a quiet feeling. Its restlessness. Its moving from intention to execution. A drive to test limits, to build together, to push ideas into motion.
At Nordic Edge Expo, hope becomes practical.
This is where leaders, cities, businesses, innovators and investors come together to test ideas, learn, and build solutions across sectors and borders.
Because change doesn’t start with technology.
It starts with people — and the choices they are willing to make.
