AWE Nite Helsinki: Northern Lights

AWEvengers Assemble!

On June 10th from 18:00-20:00 EEST AWE Nite Helsinki is going online.

Since we're not restricted to a specific location, we decided that this would be the perfect time to kick off a series called "Northern Lights" that showcases extraordinary people and companies in the region doing extraordinary things in XR.

Huge thanks to our sponsors Grib, Glue, & Arilyn!
