We recently hosted a conversation on AI-powered due diligence – and the response made it clear: forward-thinking investors and DD professionals are ready to reimagine the process. We explored what an AI-supported approach could look like, and how it stands to benefit both investors and founders by making the process faster, more scalable, and more transparent.
Now, we’re continuing the conversation. Early in 2026, we’re hosting a new webinar that dives deeper into the future of due diligence – featuring fresh insights, real-world use cases, and practical tools.
If you’re curious about where things are headed, you won’t want to miss it.

We’re excited to share that Lab08 is once again joining TechBBQ – this time as a Conqueror Partner. For the second year in a row, we’re proud to support one of the Nordics’ most vibrant startup gatherings, helping investors and founders connect, collaborate, and grow.
Last year’s partnership gave us a front-row seat to the energy, ambition, and innovation that makes TechBBQ such a standout event. More on what we learned – and what we achieved – in our recap from last year down below.
This year, we’re doubling down.
What we’re bringing to TechBBQ 2025
We’ve refined our platform. Now, it’s even easier to use, more powerful, and ready to support fast, confident decisions at scale.
Whether you’re an investor scouting for your next big bet or a founder preparing to pitch, our matchmaking capabilities are built to help you get more out of your TechBBQ networking experience.

Aside from offering our platform for enhanced networking, we’ll be at TechBBQ throughout the conference:

Join our special side event on Day 2, if you’re a GP or LP of a fund
Find us on Brella to meet & see a demo of the full capabilities of our platform, covering due diligence
A quick look back: what we did at TechBBQ last year
At last year’s TechBBQ, we introduced Vicinity, serving as the AI-powered matchmaking engine to help founders and investors cut through the noise and connect more effectively at one of the Nordics’ largest startup gatherings.
Founders uploaded their pitch decks and filled out detailed startup profiles, which Vicinity enriched with trusted third-party data — from team composition to financials. Investors shared their investment theses via a guided chat interface, helping the AI understand their preferences and generate tailored startup matches.
The results spoke for themselves:
300+ founders created detailed startup profiles
250 investors submitted their investment criteria
170+ meeting invites generated during the event — with countless more informal connections likely made beyond our tracking
We also gathered valuable learnings about the use of AI in live event matchmaking. From tuning our model to interpret user intent accurately to refining prompt logic for better investor-startup pairing, the experience laid the groundwork for ongoing improvements – and even sparked early conversations about training our own in-house AI models.
It was an ambitious launch, but a rewarding one. We’re grateful for the trust TechBBQ placed in us to tackle such a high-stakes challenge together.
And it doesn’t stop at the event
Our full product goes far beyond matchmaking – offering a lightweight but powerful toolset for due diligence:
Preliminary tech analysis to surface red flags early
A smart data room to centralize and manage documentation
AI-powered chat that gives investors full startup context – blending personal notes, public data, and founder-provided details
