Everything you need to know before the big day

The WiT Forum is Finland's biggest annual gathering of tech professionals, company representatives, and people figuring out where they want to go in the industry.

This edition covers what the community asked for. Every career stage is welcome, from early-career to the executive level, with an emphasis on women.

Theme

Tech Horizons: Impacting our Future

Technology is reshaping work, leadership and society at speed. But where is tech actually taking us, and what does it mean for the people building, using and leading it? One full day where the Finnish tech community gathers to explore what's on the horizon.

A day worth
taking off work for

01

Keynotes that stay with you

Speakers with something actual to say about where technology is going. Not inspiration, but the kind of talk you're still thinking about two weeks later.

02

Honest conversations

Panels and workshops where people talk about work as it actually is. The uncomfortable questions get airtime here.

03

Your new favourite people

500+ people from across Finnish tech in one place. Bring questions. The hallway conversations are half the point.

Forum 2026 brings together tech professionals, leaders, and emerging talent to look at what's on the horizon: AI, cybersecurity, sustainability tech, data sovereignty, and the future of work and leadership.

Through keynotes, panels, focus sessions, and conversation, we'll explore the opportunities and challenges ahead, creating space for knowledge sharing, honest exchange, and new connections across the community.

The morning looks at where tech is heading. The afternoon zooms in on what it means for our work, careers, and how we lead.
