Women in Tech - At the forefront of innovation: Nima Tisdall, Nordic Makers

To celebrate International Women’s Day 2024 – we are delighted to launch our new Women in Tech series, where we will hear interesting stories from interesting people leading the charge at the forefront of innovation. In episode 1 – we hear from Nima Tisdall, a Forbes 30 under 30, and CEO & Operating Partner at Nordic Makers. Nordic Makers is a very active business angel network in the Nordics, investing in early stage start ups from across the region and helping them to thrive. Interviewed by Danish Tech & Comms Partner Martin von Haller Grønbæk, Nima outlines her vision for developing an ecosystem in the Nordics that fosters a leading start-up environment, and helps to put the next generation of Scandinavian unicorn companies firmly on the agenda. Nima also considers the challenges within the startup and fundraising field with a focus on biases in venture funding, particularly for minority groups. Nima also discussed environmental sustainability in the Nordics, a topic she is close to since she founded Blue Lobster, a platform which aims to make sustainable fishing the economically viable choice.
