About
Skåne Startups

Our story began when a few Swedish entrepreneurs made the commitment of supporting other founders. They first started Malmö Startups in 2015. In one year, they organized 33 events, everything from matching students with startups to helping later stage startups raising their next round of financing.

The organization's activities have changed over the course of a few years. Yet the mission stayed clear. Our team has been a group of tech enthusiasts and community builders with a shared vision of fostering an open and inclusive startup ecosystem.
