Meet Kista at TECHARENA 2026

We’re excited to bring Kista to TECHARENA, Scandinavia’s tech, business and startup event. If you’ll be there and are curious about Kista’s role in strengthening technological sovereignty for Europe and Sweden – we’d love to chat.

We’ll be attending TECHARENA on Feb. 11-12 with representatives from Kista Science City, Corem, Vasakronan, Castellum, Akademiska Hus and Kista Limitless.

In other words, we’re offering a great opportunity to explore how Kista offers everything needed to turn innovation into real-world impact, and how the area is currently transforming from a business district into a vibrant neighborhood – where tech, creativity and daily life blend together.

Whether you’re already operating out of Kista or just exploring what’s next, we hope to meet you there and learn more about what you’re building.

Join us for a chat and a nice cup of coffee in the Kista booth – and leave with a memory of your visit from our photo booth – or catch us at any of the below activities.
