Iceland Innovation Week 2026 will take place on April 27 and 30, 2026 at Austurbæjarbíó in Reykjavik, bringing together startups, investors, policymakers and industry leaders to explore how Iceland’s unique geography and culture fuel cutting‑edge innovation.

The two‑day festival will be organized around 6 thematic pillars, namely defense and dual‑use technology, life sciences, AI and deep‑tech, software-as-a-service (SaaS) and consumer products, the future of food, and climate tech, each highlighting how Nordic founders blend resilience, trust and long‑term thinking to address global challenges ranging from security‑focused satellite intelligence to carbon‑removal infrastructure.
