Upright joins forces with Slush as impact quantification partner for 2024

Upright is proudly joining forces with Slush, the leading European startup event, as their impact quantification partner for 2024. Together, we will quantify the impact of companies confirmed to speak at Slush 2024, exploring for the first time how Slush’s stage program and featured companies shape the event’s impact on the world.

“For the last seven years, Upright has been building a science-dictated data model to quantify the real-world impacts of companies. In the spring, Slush reached out to us with their new ambition to take an analytical and curious look at their own impact – and we didn’t hesitate to say yes,” says Annu Nieminen, CEO & founder of Upright, who will also be speaking at Slush 2024.

The goal of the partnership is to deepen understanding of startups’ impact on the world – and build a world-leading startup and tech event where “impact” is not a superimposed buzzword, but a guiding principle in core content decisions.

What’s the impact of AI? How big of a difference does climate tech actually make? What kind of a future are today’s startups building?

Stay tuned for insights as we approach Slush 2024, taking over Helsinki on November 20–21. Exciting times are ahead!
