On the 29th-30th April 2021, we’re hosting the 7th edition of the EU-Startups Summit in Barcelona. At our annual flagship event you’ll have the chance to connect with over 1,500 founders, startup enthusiasts, corporates, angel investors, VCs, and the media, learn from 70+ expert speakers, take part in workshops with internationally successful founders, network (via our app!) and bite your nails through our exciting pitch competition.
Today we are excited to announce a new speaker, who many of you will be keen to meet: Oscar Pierre, Co-founder and CEO of booming delivery service Glovo.
Oscar needs little introduction, but we can try. Just 27 years old, Oscar has acted as the CEO and founder of Glovo for 5 years now, driving the growth of one of the world’s fastest growing on-demand delivery players. Steering the “Glovo ship” is no mean feat, as last year they averaged launching in a new city every 4 days, are now present in +23 countries across Europe, Latin America, Africa, and Asia, and it seems they never cease to snap up funding for expansion. Unsurprisingly, Oscar is also certainly no stranger to growing a team that maintains company culture, with team numbers surpassing 1,500 people (and growing!).
With experience like this, we’re sure Oscar will have some interesting stories to share with us at the EU-Startups Summit. Oscar also joined us in 2018, and we’re excited to hear about all that has happened since then – including snapping up Series C and Series D funding of over €265 million, and their recent acquisition of PizzaPortal in Poland.
At the EU-Startups Summit, you’ll get to listen in on our fireside chat with him. We will talk about his entrepreneurial journey with Glovo, get insights on his biggest failures and find out how he is managing their exponential growth.
