What is Future Day?
Future Day is a full-day event at KTH bringing together students, founders, investors, and startup hubs for a day centered on innovation and entrepreneurship.
The program of panel discussions throughout the day will cover the full startup journey, from validating an idea and getting your first customers, to raising a funding round, scaling a team, and the lessons that only come from having done it yourself. The speakers include founders at various stages, venture capitalists, representatives from leading incubators, and KTH alumni who have built companies you've heard of. Every session is roughly 40 minutes, so you can drop in on the ones most relevant to you.
