Nordic Innovation Summit 2026 starts on October 13, 2026.

The summit takes place at National Nordic Museum in Seattle, Washington.

The listed audience includes people from science, community, government, and industry, as well as Arctic experts and media specialists.

It is most useful for people working on Arctic policy, research or regional partnerships in the US and Nordics, since the four sessions cover academia, policy, community and implementation and the speakers include Denny Heck, Marko Liias and Rufus Gifford. Those wanting technical or commercial deal-making content will find less, as the format is conversation with real-time audience Q&A rather than a trade or workshop setting.

Policy and cultural-institution summits in Seattle usually call for business casual, with blazers common among government guests and relaxed smart clothing from others.
