Join us during JOIN EXPRESSION

Every year we organise Join eXpression where we celebrates passion-driven initiatives, whether they take place in business, associations or academia.

We want it to be a meeting place that grows together with the creative Umeå and helps more people to be seen and heard. 

The next Join will be held in autumn 2026.
