Goodwille x The Global Startup Awards

The successful partnership between Goodwille and The Nordic Startup Awards has flourished over the years and as a result, we are pleased to announce that this year, Goodwille have partnered with The Global Startup awards!

The Global Startup Finalists are compiled from 8 regions and compete for a number of different awards, all from the heart of Copenhagen in one of the most emblematic places in the city, the Circus Building. What a place to reintroduce in-person events since the easing of lockdown!

The Global Startup Awards is the world’s largest independent start up ecosystem competition, and they use their competition framework and events to run programmes across the world, a number of which Goodwille have sponsored and attended over recent. In 2020, Goodwille hosted webinars for start-ups, sharing insight on expansion to the UK, scaling a team and raising investment. As well as this, Goodwille take ownership of particular awards and last year saw co-founder of Natural Cycles, Elina Berglund Scherwitzl, win the ‘Founder of the Year’ award and we are looking forward doing the same again this year.

James Service, Marketing Manager at Goodwille said: “As a company who are proudly tied to the Nordic’s, it’s a pleasure to be part of this year’s event in November. The GSAwards are bringing some of the world’s best startups to Copenhagen, which is fantastic for the region.. We’re looking forward to seeing our client, PLEO, who won Global startup of the Year in 2020, present the award this year.”
