funding on the spot at their booth at Slush.

Startup Booths have a default design and setup, so no production is needed, but
customization for delegation partners is possible. To learn more about the
possibilities of Startup Booths for delegations, reach out to

VOLUNTEERS

READ MORE ABOUT SLUSH VOLUNTEERING


PRODUCTION

The Production Team’s core is to guarantee a seamless customer journey
throughout one of the world’s most complex event productions for 13,000
visitors. In order to create a 7-star experience for our event visitors, we have
partnered up with the coolest production companies and industry professionals in
event services, creating moments to remember. But we wouldn’t be anything
without the production volunteers, they breathe the Slush Magic alive.


FINANCE

If you’re curious to learn world-class finance skills in a hands-on environment,
look no further. Our Finance volunteers help us with crucial day-to-day finance
operations, and run the coolest clothing store in Finland — the Slush Store
which sells merchandise at the event.


MARKETING & DESIGN

At Slush, together the Marketing and Design teams form the Studio Team. We work
closely together to create and curate the external communications and visual
identity for Slush, online and off.

Studio volunteers film, photograph, graphic design, write, and publish content
to Slush’s social media channels during and after the event with the support of
the full-time team. Additionally, we ensure Slush’s stage content is
livestreamed to our online audience, and we engage with the Slush community in
our DM’s, comment sections, and feeds.


MEDIA & PR

The Media & PR team has two core responsibilities at Slush: attracting the
world’s leading media representatives to Slush and creating the best media
experience of any event on the planet for them, and building compelling
narratives to showcase Slush as an organization to media. Media & PR volunteers
make sure all guests in these concepts have a stellar customer experience.


PEOPLE

Slush would not happen without our people — the 1,500 volunteers make the real
magic happen. The People Team recruits and trains these curious future builders.
On top of this, we organize training events and gatherings for the Slush team
and volunteers and make sure the volunteer operations run smoothly from start to
finish.


PARTNERSHIPS

The Partnership Team brings the world’s leading companies, scale-ups, country
delegations, and research labs to be involved in Slush activities as partners.
Our Partners generate a significant part of income for Slush while bringing
relevant and value-adding activities for the founder and investor audiences of
the event. Partnerships volunteers make sure all partners have a stellar
experience with Slush in each encounter.


PROGRAM

The Program team is at the center of one of Slush’s most visible parts of the
event: Speakers and stages. We bring the most iconic founders, investors,
operators, and tech executives on stage in order to encourage the next
generation of people to build companies. Our content focuses on practical
company-building advice – everything that an aspiring or an early-stage founder
needs to know in order to build a groundbreaking venture. Program team
volunteers work closely with our iconic speakers and ensure they have a smooth
and superb experience at Slush.


INVESTORS

The Investor team is responsible for attracting the world’s leading venture
capital investors to Slush, and creating the best investor experience of any
event on the planet for them. Investor team volunteers work on the concepts and
events offered to the investors visiting Slush and make sure they get excellent
customer service in every encounter with Slush. The Investor Team volunteers
will have a chance to interact with investors having $3 trillion in assets under
management.


STARTUPS

The Startup Team has the exciting responsibility of taking care of our largest
core visitor group — the startup CEOs and founders. This is done with concepts
like Founders Day, Founder’s Day Experiences and Startup Booths to mention a
few. Startup Team is also responsible for the Meeting Area and the overall
Meeting Experience that are at the core of Slush. People come to Slush to meet
relevant people for their ventures – and we’ve taken it to our heart to execute
it to perfection for them. Startup team volunteers make sure all founders are
treated like royalty in every encounter they have with Slush.


FEEDBACK

Feedback team is responsible for collecting and analyzing main event feedback.
This includes both general event feedback and concept-specific feedback. The
feedback team is part of Slush’s Research team responsible for data analysis and
research collaborations with external stakeholders.
