Nordic Foundation Conference 2025

The Nordic Foundation Conference 2025 will take place in Helsinki on 25-26 September 2025 around the theme of polarisation.

Our ambitious goal is to bring the Nordic foundation community together in Helsinki in a way that sparks real connections, fresh ideas, and pathways for concrete collaboration. Our theme is polarisation, and we will look at it from different perspectives: how to tackle it, and how to collaborate with others in challenging times. We will also have plenty of insights on other relevant themes and topics.

This event is a team effort! There will be many breakout sessions to choose from, organised by experts from various foundations around the Nordics, as well as interesting keynote speakers, discussions, site visits and art performances. Our planning team of seven is working hard to put it all together, and we’re excited to welcome you to Helsinki!
