Novable at Slush 2026

Slush brings thousands of startups and investors to Helsinki, with more than 50,000 meetings planned across its two days. For a corporate innovation team, finding startups is not the hard part. Knowing which ones are worth your team’s time is.

Slush is also built around meetings booked in advance. Calendars fill early, and ticket holders are already booking the best slots. Arrive without names and you spend the event hoping to meet the right people by chance.

Traditional scouting doesn’t solve this. A company directory gives you names. A tool gives you a long list. Neither tells you which startups are ready to work with a large organisation, and consultants take weeks.

That is what we built EventScout for. We take an event’s company list, enrich it, and run it against your brief using DeepMatching™ and analyst review. You get a ranked shortlist with a short summary of each startup, why it fits your priorities, and talking points, so you know who to book before the calendars fill up. It works whether you are in Helsinki or following from your desk.

Fujitsu used it at a trade fair to skip the walk through every hall and go straight to companies already identified for him. Some of them, he told us, he would have missed otherwise.

We will be at Booth E9 on November 18th and 19th. Olivier Beaujean, our CEO, and Emma Jepsen our innovation expert will be there. Whether you lead innovation, R&D scouting, a transformation team or a corporate venture fund, bring one real question. No slides, no generic demo, just a focused conversation about your priorities and whether Novable can help you act on them.
