What is NOW – Nordic Opportunity Week?

NOW – Nordic Opportunity Week is where Nordic creativity meets the global stage.

For over a decade, NOW has brought together the Nordic creative industries and Hollywood, building bridges through film, television, music, gaming, and more. What began as a celebration of Nordic Oscar nominees has evolved into a highly focused platform for international collaboration, cultural impact, and professional advancement.

Each year, NOW presents curated industry forums, with programming tailored to different disciplines within the creative sectors. These forums offer a space for Nordic professionals to connect meaningfully with key players in the U.S. market and beyond.

Participation is selective and guided by professional relevance, in close collaboration with Nordic industry organizations and partners. Some programming may also accommodate independently affiliated creatives whose work aligns with the scope and ambition of the event.

The aim of NOW is clear: to help Nordic professionals take their projects to the next level, foster meaningful international partnerships, and create tangible trade opportunities within the global creative economy.

And of course, some traditions remain — our annual Oscar Celebration continues to bring the wider Nordic creative community together to honor and uplift regional talent on the world stage.

NOW is more than an event — it’s a launchpad. A meeting point. A platform for what’s next.
