Hear it here first.
Northbeat is where Nordic health innovation is heard first. We find what's new before it's everywhere: the startups, the research, the open calls and the people behind them. Then we share it, and bring people together to build more of it.
What we do
The map
Every organisation, event and open call in Nordic health, connected, so you can see who works with whom.
The letter
The innovations themselves, explained in plain words: what's new, why it matters, who is behind it. Plus the deadlines and events you shouldn't miss.
The podcast
Conversations with the people building health in the Nordics. Starts December 2026.
Why we started
We're founders ourselves. We're building a women's health company in Helsinki, and we kept hearing about things too late: a grant that closed last week, a lab that could have tested our idea, an investor who backs exactly what we do. So we started tracking everything. Then we saw that everyone around us needed the same thing.
Build it with us
Northbeat grows with its community. Tell us what we missed. Share what you're building. Guide others. Come on the podcast. Mentor or partner at the hackathon.
