The very first edition of VĂ„ga, VĂ€x & Vinn ' (English: Dare, Grow & Win') has officially taken place in Varberg in April 2025â an inspiring event designed for both aspiring entrepreneurs and those ready to take the next step on their business journey.
As part of Varbergâs ambition to become an attractive hub for young talent, the event placed entrepreneurship, innovation, and personal growth at the heart of the agenda. By spotlighting local opportunities, strengthening networks, and providing hands-on support for business ideas, Varberg is positioning itself as the place where the next generation of changemakers want to live, thrive, and grow.
Throughout the day, participants immersed themselves in the world of entrepreneurship through a dynamic mix of inspiration, knowledge-sharing, and practical workshops. The attendees were guided through a program that featured, among other things, a mini-hackathon for those curious about starting their own business. The experience made it clear that the path from idea to action can be both fast-paced and exciting.
The event also offered valuable insights into entrepreneurial journeys and incubator programs. Participants learned what it takes to be accepted into a business incubator and how such environments can boost both business developments. The regionâs growing tech scene was also highlighted, showing how digitalization is opening doors to global markets even from smaller cities.
The day concluded with a celebratory awards ceremony, where a former Young Enterprise (UF) entrepreneur was honored as Alumni of the Year â a powerful reminder that passion and persistence in entrepreneurship can lead to lasting success.
