Helsingborg Innovation District is back with the second edition of Helsingborg Tech Week from 19 to 25 October 2026 where Helsingborg will become a meeting point for entrepreneurs, researchers, companies, investors, students, public-sector organisations, and other innovators.
In the effort of strengthening the partnership around the innovation ecosystem in building the future, this year’s Helsingborg Tech Week comes under the theme “Make It Work. Then Scale It.” The week will not only focus on talking about future technologies, but also on testing ideas, finding partners, and turning promising solutions into something that works in the real world.
Unlike traditional conferences where it’s held in one venue, Helsingborg Tech Week spreads across the city’s innovation ecosystem: RecoLab, HETCH, Mindpark, E-commerce Park of Scandinavia, Parken: Center for Innovation and Lunds University Helsingborg Campus. The programme covers lectures, workshops, networking events, testbeds, startup activities, and conversations connecting academia, business, the public sector, and entrepreneurs.
Helsingborg Tech Week, offers a wide variety of events from REAL Impact: Supply Chain Innovation Forum, a lecture by Nobel prize winner laureate, Anne L’Huillier about The world of atoms at the attosecond time scale, the Make It! Hackathon by LU Innovation at Mindpark, the Venture Cup regional finals, the Challenges and Investment Needs in Water and Wastewater Management, a Girls in Tech with Koenigsegg at the Science Center and even a bootcamp about skill supply. A lot of different events, all on different aspects of tech, startups or innovation.
That is why there is no single way to experience Tech Week. The events will be held in Swedish and English, all the information about the daily events and registration is available on their official website: helsingborginnovationdistrict.com/techweek/
