Timeline

YC Startup School

Y Combinator's Startup School 2026 at the Chase Center in San Francisco, with the boys. Fireside chats in the arena, a few thousand founders on one lawn, humanoids wandering the plaza, and chess in the sun between talks.

With Chris, Antonije and John

MiniFactory Hackathon

Flew into Copenhagen with no team and flew out as a winner. First place at MiniFactory, the Qualia x Atech x LeRobot hackathon. We trained two policies on a robot arm, one to sort small components and one to load them onto a conveyor belt, then drove the belt with sensors on the Atech board. We also built a new integration for Atech's Python SDK on their new CO2 sensor. All in 29 hours.

Y Combinator Stockholm

Back in Stockholm for Y Combinator's first event in the Nordics. Fireside chat with Paul Graham and Jessica Livingston, and a room full of founders and builders.

RoboHacks at Y Combinator

Got flown out to San Francisco and took 2nd place at RoboHacks, the first robotics hackathon hosted at the Y Combinator office. In roughly 30 hours on Innate's MARS robots we built RECON: an autonomous bomb defusal robot that maps a room with LiDAR and detects humans through walls with a custom 24GHz radar module.

HackEurope Stockholm

Returned to Stockholm for yet another hackathon, this time hosted by HackEurope at Norrsken House with sponsors like Anthropic, Stripe, Google DeepMind, and more. Built an agentic sales closer platform.

Equinor CTF

Competed in the Equinor Capture The Flag cybersecurity competition. My second time attending this CTF, and I placed 2nd in the student category and 7th overall.

SF Trip 2025

Travelled to San Francisco with the boys to experience the SF vibe. Met a bunch of cool builders, and attended multiple hackathons. Went to places like 1x HQ, YC, and more.

Stockholm AI Hackathon

Won "Best use of Beyond Presence" at {Tech: Europe}: Stockholm AI Hackathon. Amazing experience meeting other builders and CEOs like Anton Osika and Max Junestrand.

Robotic Hand

Finished my MediaPipe-controlled robotic hand project. First real robotics project I built from scratch!
