We shed northern light on the most vexing problems of the business community
The Northern Light Summits
The Northern Light Summits are intellectually stimulating, informal gatherings for leaders of Europe’s most important businesses and globally renowned experts. The discussions are daring and off the record, unless otherwise indicated.
Our perspective is distinctly Nordic, i.e. pragmatic, solution-oriented, and forward-looking.
Northern Light Summits are organised by the European Business Leaders’ Convention. Participation in all Northern Light events is by invitation only and restricted to the highest-level business leaders and experts.
The next EBLC Northern Light Summit will be held in Helsinki on 26 - 28 June 2025.
