What Kaupr Today will do

One daily front page for the Nordic future of business, finance, and the internet.

Kaupr Today helps you follow what matters at the intersection of finance, technology, digital assets, and the wider internet economy in the Nordics and beyond, without drowning in noise. On weekdays, you receive a concise overview of key developments in finance, fintech, Web3, blockchain, and digital infrastructure, with a clear regional lens and an eye on global shifts that affect Nordic markets and digital ecosystems.

The ambition is to make it easier for builders, investors, leaders, and policymakers to stay informed, spot emerging trends, and see how business, technology, markets, and regulations connect to their work. This newsletter functions as the daily “front page” of Kaupr, from which you can move on to long-form articles, interviews, explainers, digests, and event coverage when a topic deserves more time and attention.

Kaupr began as a Nordic content hub for Web3, blockchain, and crypto, and is evolving into a broader platform that also covers digital assets, tokenization, payments, and the infrastructure that powers the future of finance and the internet. Kaupr Today ties those pieces together in one recurring touchpoint and offers a calm, professional lens on the space rather than a trading signal feed or hype machine.

Beyond the daily: other newsletters

From quick daily briefs to deep dives on the future of finance and technology.

Alongside the daily briefing, Kaupr offers other newsletters and content formats you can explore once the rhythm of Kaupr Today is in place. Next by Kaupr, delivered via email, explores emerging trends, innovative startups, and the future of technology and business, including up-to-date information on new Kaupr services and how the Kaupr community is developing.

The Future of Finance Premium newsletter, tightly connected with the podcast and microsite of the same name, provides in-depth analysis, exclusive insights, and expert commentary on digital finance, fintech, and economic transformation. Meanwhile, the Future of Finance Digest, shared on LinkedIn, offers a curated selection of news, thought pieces, and updates from across the financial innovation landscape, ideal for professionals who want to stay informed through social media.

The Future of Finance concept is where larger questions are unpacked: how tokenization might change capital markets, how regulation shapes innovation, how institutional players are entering digital assets, and how new infrastructure is being built at the intersection of traditional finance and crypto.

Community and Kaupr events

Where headlines meet people, places, and real conversations.

If your work depends on meeting people, joining conversations, and staying close to the community, Kaupr’s event- and community-oriented formats are there to support that. Through event collaborations such as the growing Event Event Hub, Kaupr highlights conferences, meetups, and initiatives that bring together founders, investors, institutions, and technologists across the Nordics and selected European hubs. If you want so subscribe to events organized by Kaupr and partners, you can subscribe to our event calendar on LuMa.

Over time, this part of the ecosystem is meant to make it easier to discover where the important conversations are happening, how to participate, and how to connect what you read to what happens on the ground.

Kaupr towards 2026

From media outlet to ecosystem platform for the future of finance and the internet.

To understand why all of this exists and where it is heading, the best next step after this introduction is the article “Kaupr towards 2026: We’re building a Nordic ecosystem for the future of finance”. That piece outlines how Kaupr is moving from being just a media outlet into a platform that connects content, community, and collaboration across the future-of-finance space.

The vision is not to put Kaupr at the centre of the story, but to make the story about the ecosystem itself: the builders, managers, investors, and institutions who are experimenting with digital assets, tokenization, new payment rails, and emerging infrastructure in the region. Towards 2026, the plan is to strengthen the connections between news, newsletters, and live events so that following the future of finance in the Nordics becomes less fragmented and easier to navigate.

That includes more consistent coverage of projects and companies, greater visibility for the people doing the work, and smoother paths from a headline in Kaupr Today to a long-form analysis, a data-driven explainer, or a relevant stage at an event. It also involves collaborating with partners, clusters, and local communities to surface what is happening locally, rather than trying to centralise everything in one place.

An invitation before January 5

If you are still reading, you are early – and already part of the story.

If you have read this far in the very first issue, you are already part of the early ecosystem Kaupr is building. This newsletter is not for everyone, and it is not meant to be: it is for people who want a grounded, long-term view on the future of finance and the internet in and around the Nordics, not quick trading tips or hype cycles.

Today’s edition is intentionally timeless and introductory; the real journey begins with the next issue. Watch for Kaupr Today in your inbox on 5 January, when the first full daily briefing goes out, and join as the future of finance and the internet in the Nordics is followed one weekday at a time.
