The Small and Medium Enterprises General Authority “Monsha’at” today launched its participation in Slush 2025 in Helsinki, Finland, one of the world’s leading gatherings focused on entrepreneurship and future technologies, which annually attracts thousands of investors, entrepreneurs, and technology leaders from around the world.

Monsha’at is participating with a delegation of Saudi companies with strong potential for international expansion, as part of a program aimed at enhancing their readiness to enter global markets, connecting them with innovation ecosystems and investment firms in Northern Europe, and expanding networking opportunities with investors and venture capital funds.

The first day’s activities began with the Saudi delegation attending the exhibition’s sessions and specialized events, in addition to participating in the Investor Mixer, an investment event organized by the Ministry of Communications and Information Technology and the National Technology Development Program (NTDP), bringing together international investors and Saudi and global technology companies through a platform designed to foster partnerships and joint funding opportunities.

Monsha’at is also organizing an accompanying program running through November 21 to introduce Saudi entrepreneurs to Finland’s innovation ecosystem through field visits to universities, accelerators, and startup communities at Aalto University, A Grid, and Design Factory, in addition to meetings connecting the delegation with Finnish innovation and investment entities.

Monsha’at affirmed that its participation in Slush reflects its ongoing efforts to support high-potential Saudi companies in expanding internationally, connecting them with global markets, and strengthening their presence at major international events, further reinforcing the Kingdom’s position as an influential hub in the global digital economy.
