Location

Oulu - City of creative and laid-back people

Silicon Valley of the North

Oulu is known of its vibrant tech-scene and innovation ecosystem.

Local companies and research institutions have been major players behind technologies such as 5G, GSM, IRC, heart-rate monitoring, and wearable fitness devices.

The Venue

The conference will take place in the historic Theatre Rio.

It's located in the heart of the city - walking distance away from hotels and restaurants.

Less than 8 hours of flying from any European capital city.

The night train from Helsinki is also quite cozy and it has one of the best bars in Finland.

Accommodation

We recommend booking a cottage together with the other attendees, because it's cheaper and there's a great chance for making lifelong friends.

If your colleagues are not coming, and you're not familiar with the international Swift community yet, you can try your luck in finding flatmates in the conference Slack.

SYÖTE BOOKING CENTRE

There are also two hotels at the resort:

HOTEL ISO-SYÖTE KIDE HOTEL
