NOME Mentoring Programme

The NOME US Camp is a 6-day intensive workshop in the San Francisco Bay Area for selected NOME startups. Companies receive tailored mentorship from US-based experts in IP, regulatory, market access, and more. Each startup is matched with mentors in advance to shape a highly personalized program. The camp includes one-on-one sessions, networking events, and the CLSI FAST International Showcase.
It’s a unique opportunity to explore US market entry and build valuable connections in the life sciences ecosystem.

C-level Sessions are exclusive, founder-to-founder roundtables designed for startup executives in the NOME program.

Each session brings together 4–6 C-level leaders to openly discuss real challenges, share insights, and exchange advice.

These peer-to-peer conversations focus on the topics that matter most to company leadership—strategy, growth, team dynamics, fundraising, and more.

It’s a confidential and collaborative space where startup leaders support each other with practical experience and honest dialogue.

The sessions foster trust, perspective, and lasting connections across the NOME community.

When you join NOME, you become part of an exclusive, high-impact network of life science innovators, seasoned mentors, industry leaders, and strategic partners across the Nordics and beyond.
This community is built on trust, collaboration, and shared ambition—offering startups access to world-class expertise, investor connections, and peer support.
Whether you’re navigating regulatory hurdles, scaling internationally, or refining your business model, the NOME network is a powerful resource every step of the way.
It’s not just mentorship—it’s a gateway to lasting relationships and meaningful growth.
Stay connected through alumni events, C-level sessions, and ongoing access to the NOME ecosystem.

In addition to structured sessions, NOME offers flexible 1-to-1 mentoring tailored to each company’s specific needs.
Startups can connect directly with individual NOME mentors for focused support—whether it’s a single deep-dive or an ongoing mentoring relationship.
These sessions allow founders to tap into specialized expertise, explore strategic questions, and get actionable advice on challenges they’re facing right now.
It’s a unique chance to work closely with world-class mentors on your terms, at your pace.
Mentorship in NOME is never one-size-fits-all—it’s built around you.

NOME’s corporate partners are leading life science companies and industry players who bring strategic insight, real-world perspective, and valuable opportunities to the table.
Through these partnerships, startups gain access to expert feedback, potential collaboration opportunities, and a deeper understanding of market dynamics and commercial pathways.
Corporate partners may also contribute to mentoring, pilot projects, or even co-development discussions, helping companies bridge the gap between innovation and industry needs.
This connection to the corporate world helps NOME startups validate, scale, and refine their solutions with real market input.
It’s where innovation meets industry—opening doors that matter.

Matchmaking is at the heart of the NOME experience. Once a startup is accepted into the program, we work closely with the founders to understand their needs, goals, and challenges.
Based on this, NOME’s team identifies and handpicks mentors from our extensive network who bring the right mix of experience, expertise, and perspective.
Startups are then invited to pitch to a group of mentors, allowing both sides to explore potential fit and interest.
From there, mentors and companies are matched organically—based on mutual alignment, shared goals, and genuine interest.
The result? Tailored mentorship relationships that are high-value, high-trust, and built to last.
