The EU-Startups Summit is our annual flagship event where we showcase a selection of Europe's hottest startups and where we come together to learn from some of the most successful European entrepreneurs of our time!
We expect over 700 startup founders, tech folks, corporates, business angels, media people and investors from all across Europe. Our affordable ticket prices already include food and drinks during the main event. We'll also have a nice after-party in the evening for further networking and drinks! :-)
We will have fireside chats with internationally successful founders like Riccardo Zacconi – the Co-founder and CEO of King, Ida Tin, a Danish superstar entrepreneur and founder/CEO of the world’s fastest growing female health app Clue, and Valentin Stalf, the founder and CEO of the fintech heavyweight N26.
Also speaking will be Glovo founder & CEO Oscar Pierre. Glovo is a Barcelona-based startup which secured more than €37 million in venture capital and is currently expanding across Europe. Morten Lund - a well known serial entrepreneur from Copenhagen, and with over 115 personal investments (Skype, Tradeshift, Bullguard...) probably Europe's most active angel investor will join us. Last but not least, we'll welcome the GrantTree Co-founder Paulina Sygulska Tenner, and the Uniplaces Co-founder Mariano Kostelec and StartupGuide founder Sissel Hansen on stage.
We'll also have a big pitch competition with 15 exciting startups from all across Europe. The pitch competition will be judged by a team of well known investors. The winning startup team will receive a an attractive prize package worth €68,000.
In addition to fireside chats, and an 'Investors on Stage' session, we'll have interesting speeches/panels, and great networking opportunities! More highlights and an overview regarding the EU-Startups Summit can be found here.
