What you likely need
You'd get the most out of Festival events that put you in front of angels and micro-VCs who already back Estonian and Nordic founders, where your serial-founder track record and Lightbird affiliation open doors fast. Roundtables that sharpen your AI-native health benefits narrative against other B2B SaaS and health-tech founders would help you stress-test positioning before your next investor meeting. You'd also benefit from smaller, high-trust gatherings focused on sustainable founder pace and first sales-hire strategy, given where Rivendell is in its growth arc.
