Why Science

We're here to bring forth the value of science-based business, and encourage scientists to embrace a different way of thinking about impact. Y Science invites all those enthusiastic about life sciences and commercialization of research for a moment of mutual enlightenment.

The event originates from a collaboration between Slush and the University of Helsinki. In 2024, the event is organized by the Helsinki Institute of Life Science (HiLIFE) together with Helsinki Innovation Services Ltd., Orion Pharma, Viikki Food Design Factory and Aalto University.

Join us for a journey of discovery. Our path will pass through scientific breakthroughs, possibilities for concrete action and tasty teasers of what you can do with your skills if you just set your mind to it.

The event is one of the official side events of Slush, the biggest startup conference in the Nordics.
