The New Nordic Tech
-Manifest-

In the nordic regions we have a strong tradition for taking ancient and traditional methods and evolving them in a new context, giving rise to movements such as the new nordic cuisine, new nordic architecture, design and new nordic films. We believe it's time for the new nordic tech to rise.

Why a Manifesto?

Artists, inventors, entrepreneurs before us have made the flow and spirit of time tangible by capturing its core in a written manifesto. 

Putting words to a feeling and allowing it to be mutually recognized and accepted. 

As an opening, an invitation to engage, unite, support and create.
