Join ArcticEvening Tallinn on January 28th

Together between ArcticStartup, Connect Estonia and OpenCoffee Tallinn we are organising a kick-ass tech startup event: ArcticEvening on January 28th in Tallinn.

The evening will include pitches from 2 Estonian and 2 Finnish startups, a panel between Sten Tamkivi from Skype, Allan Martinson from MTVP and a special Finnish guest, followed by drinks and networking.

From the interest people both from Finland and Estonia have shown, it promises to be a great event. Feel free to join us either a participant or submit your startup pitch to be among the 4 lucky starups to promote yourself there. You’ll meet an international bunch of enterpreneurs, tech people, VC’s and others. And it’s all free!

The number of seats is limited to 100, and in half a day half of these are already “sold out” so to join us, register on the event page already now – we might be full in a few days!

See you in Tallinn!

Future OpenCoffee Club Tallinn events

jk — Sun, 26 Oct 2008 20:18:43 +0000

OpenCoffee Club Tallinn is celebrating its 1 year anniversary soon, yipee! The recent events have had over 50 participants, both old and new. So if you happen to be in Tallinn, why not drop by and meet both local and foreign tech people and investors.

The best way to get event notifications is to join our Facebook group here – we have 207 members now.

The next events are scheduled on November 6th, December 4th and January 8th. I would bet that a 9 AM event on January 1st would not be too popular, unless some drinks are involved.

Interview on ArcticStartup

Antti from ArcticStartup (the best blog on Nordic and Baltic startup scene) was recently nice enough to do an interview with me. If you are interested on opinion rather than facts, I suggest you scroll down to the second part of the posting. Stagnation and domination of large telcos and media companies among top Estonian websites are something I would like to touch on in the future also in this blog. For OpenCoffee, we also have different goals here compared to established startup markets, which I described on ArcticStartup.

The guys from ArcticStartup will also be soon in Tallinn for the Nordic Mobile Media Conference and are looking to organise an event here, hopefully that will work out.

OpenCoffee Tallinn this Thursday

jk — Mon, 07 Jan 2008 11:37:00 +0000

Our second OpenCoffee Tallinn Club event will take place already this Thursday, 9-11 AM, at Scotland Yard Pub, Mere pst 6E, Tallinn. The OpenCoffee Club was started to encourage entrepreneurs, developers and investors to organise real-world informal meetups to chat, network and grow, and the movement is now active in over 78 cities across the world.

Everyone active on the technology scene is welcome, like always, just show up any time between 9-11 AM, grab a cup of coffee, introduce yourself to others and just let it flow from there. The first event in Tallinn was a blast, with around 40 people from various fields (startups, VC’s, academia, government etc) showing up.
