About
Genuinely one of the best vibes of any iOS event I’ve been to.

What?
A three-day (or week-long) learning experience with an ARCtic twist — a highly curated program with a lot of side activities.
Learn how to make better apps and network with the international Apple developers community. Take a sauna, sing karaoke, and return home inspired and full of energy.

Location
During my visit to Oulu I realized what is freedom.
— Aurelius Prochazka
Silicon Valley of the North
Oulu is known for 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.
Subarctic climate
Oulu is a great place to visit. People are friendly and educated, and the beauty of nature can be magical during the winter months.
Even the cold won't be a problem as long as you remember to wear several layers when you're outside.
Less than 8 hours of flying from any European capital city.
The night train from Helsinki is also cozy, and it has one of the best bars in Finland.
