Being different makes a difference. We share similar values and mindsets, but we are also unique. Over 40 languages are spoken in our house and we have diverse skills, experiences, and quirks. Recognizing the value of our differences, and showing respect and appreciation for them, is not only a competitive edge but also a mood booster.

“I’m going to fly my younger sisters next year to watch the event, because it’s such a great source of inspiration and empowerment.” Said Nordic Fe:male Investment Summit (NFIS) 2023 attendee. Today, we’re celebrating International Day of the Girl—but it’s not just about the girls we see today. It’s about you. The little girl you once were. The dreams you had, the obstacles you overcame, the strength you never knew you had. What would you say to her now? What would you tell your daughter? Or your little sister? To that younger you, we’d say: Your dreams are valid, your voice matters, and your future is limitless. This day is for every girl who dared to dream bigger than her circumstances. For every girl who’s been told she couldn’t—and proved them wrong. For the next generation of fearless leaders, innovators, and changemakers. At Nordic Fe:male Invest Summit, we’re building a future where every girl has the chance to lead, to innovate, and to change the world.  This is the future we want. Join us at NFIS 2024 on November 6th. Do it for your younger self. Do it for the girls who are watching us shape the future today. Let’s show them the power of believing in yourself and investing in each other. So here’s to you—and the girls who will follow in your footsteps. We’ll see you at NFIS 2024. Let’s build this future together. https://nfis.minc.se/ Click through this carousel to discover powerful messages from some of the NFIS24 speakers.

🌍 Here are some quick learnings for any founder looking to take their startup global: 1. Market research is key: Know your market—culture, competitors, and local business practices. Get advice from someone who's already done it! 2. Build an international plan: Set SMART goals, clear strategies, and a budget. Don't wing it! 3. Local talent is gold: Finding the right partners or local employees can make or break your success. 4. Secure your funding: From loans to venture capital, make sure you've got enough runway to take off. 5. Stay patient: Global expansion takes time—stay committed and be ready for the long haul.
