As part of our collaboration with Phosworks, we have been sharing a series of short films capturing the essence of Venture Road California — where Nordic innovation meets global opportunity. These stories highlight the people, perspectives, and partnerships shaping the next chapter of life science entrepreneurship.
Below are three films from the series, featuring voices from across the Venture Road community.
Visions for the Future From curing diseases to transforming lives, every breakthrough starts with a vision. “Visions for the Future” explores how the power of imagination and collaboration drives the next wave of scientific discovery.
Co-Ambition: Being Part of Something Bigger That moment when science turns into hope — when a new treatment reaches millions who never had access before. “Co-Ambition” is about how individual drive becomes shared purpose, and how real progress happens when ambition is collective.
Learning Boldness in Fundraising “Just add two zeros.” That’s how Joe Panetta describes the mindset shift Nordic founders face when raising funds in the U.S. In “Learning Boldness in Fundraising,” experts Suzanne Svahn and Kirsten B. share how confidence, clarity, and connection can redefine the fundraising journey — and how small cultural differences can spark big opportunities.
Together, these stories capture what Venture Road is all about: bringing people together across borders to turn ideas into impact.
