Join us for the 7th AI Salon Stockholm session of 2026 at Sting, this time we're focusing on Deeptech. Supported by our long-term sponsor Synch.
"AI Salon is the global community for AI founders and builders, investors, and partners to connect and collaborate."
Ingrid af Sandeberg and Melina Diamantoglou welcome you and introduce the night's program. AI Salon was founded in San Francisco in 2024 and is now active in 70+ cities globally. Stockholm is one of its strongest chapters, built around genuine developer-to-developer exchange: real questions, real challenges, no pitch theatre.
From robotics and materials science to energy tech and biotech, deeptech is where AI stops being a chat window and starts becoming a physical product, and the companies building it are placing some of the hardest, most important bets out there. This evening brings together the city's most engaged AI community to explore what it actually takes to build and scale deeptech in Sweden: what's working, where the real implementation challenges are, and who is building the most interesting things right now.
📅 September 30th, 17:00 - 21:30
📍 Sting, Östermalmsgatan 26A, 114 26 Stockholm

What is a demo? A demo at AI Salon is low pressure. There is nothing at stake, it's not shark tank or demo day. It is your chance to introduce yourself to the community, share an AI-related business or project you are working on and get feedback. You do not need a pitch deck. A demo can be anything from a discussion topic, to a slide deck with a business idea, a product or prototype demonstration. Bring your own laptop.
What can you bring? You can bring a physical product, as long as it fits in a regular elevator, and/or a laptop, screen, banner, handouts, gadgets etc. In case you need anything specific, let us know in advance.
Sting is Sweden's leading startup hub, and has been backing bold founders since 2002. It was ranked #1 Deeptech Startup Hub in the Nordics 2026 by Financial Times and Statista.
