Netlight has joined FirstBlock-athon as an ecosystem partner. The consultancy is already part of the event in a practical sense: its Stockholm office at Regeringsgatan 25 hosts the two build days on 7 and 8 September.

A consultancy with people in the room

Netlight works with organisations on digital solutions, with AI, product development and digital transformation as its stated strengths. The company's own position is that complex problems are best solved through different perspectives and teamwork — which is close to the format of a hackathon itself.

For participants, the practical value of a partner like this is access. Teams get to work alongside people who build systems for a living, rather than only alongside each other.

Eight partners so far

Netlight is the eighth partner announced, joining Sullis, Neuro, BloXcel, AI Institutet, HyperMind Network, Blockchain Sweden and the FinTech and Blockchain Research Group at KTH.

FirstBlock-athon runs 7–11 September in Stockholm as part of Nordic Tech Week 2026. Applications are open.
