Rockstart Scale Impact

On November 26th, as part of Rockstart Week, we’re bringing founders, investors, alumni, mentors, corporates and the wider Norrsken community together for an evening about what it really takes to build Europe’s next generation of companies.

We’ll open with Scale Impact, our fireside chat series with entrepreneurs who have been through it. This edition, Rockstart CEO Rune Theill sits down with Thijs van der Burgt, co-founder and CEO of Norrsken Amsterdam and founder and former CEO of Office App, which was acquired by HqO. They’ll talk about the real story behind building and scaling a company: the early bets, the decisions that shaped it, and what it took to get to an exit. There are no slides, just an honest conversation with time for questions from the room.

After that, the floor is yours, with drinks, networking and a proper borrel among the people building and backing Europe’s future.
