  • Iceland Innovation Week is powered by a team of experienced people coming from the Icelandic startup ecosystem. We have been working with and for startups for years and felt Iceland was missing its own festival celebrating the innovation and startup scene. So like every other founder’s story, we got together, decided it was a great idea, made it happen and lived happily ever after.
