A Decade of Connecting Europe’s Startup Ecosystem: The 10th Anniversary of the EU-Startups Summit
This year is particularly special as we celebrate the 10th anniversary of the EU-Startups Summit, an event that has become a cornerstone of our mission to foster entrepreneurship across Europe. Marking this milestone, the Summit will be held in Malta, offering a unique setting for two days of networking, inspiration, and learning. The Summit will showcase many of Europe’s hottest startups and feature some of the most successful European entrepreneurs of our time.
We are expecting over 2,000 founders, startup enthusiasts, corporates, angel investors, VCs, and media from across Europe. The event promises unparalleled networking opportunities, facilitated by a dedicated networking app, and aims to serve as THE meeting place for aspiring entrepreneurs and investors. With over 8,000 meetings, 950 founders, and 300 investors, the Summit will include fireside chats, insightful keynotes, and an exciting pitch competition, highlighting some of Europe’s most promising startup teams selected from roughly 1,500 applicants.
Reflecting on these achievements, it’s clear that our journey is about much more than the articles we’ve published. It’s about the community we’ve built, the startups we’ve supported, and the innovation we’ve championed across Europe.
As we look to the future, we’re excited to continue this journey, supporting the European startup scene with even more enthusiasm. Our 10,000th article is not just a milestone but a stepping stone to greater achievements. We’re committed to providing deeper insights, and more impactful stories, and fostering a stronger, more connected startup ecosystem across Europe.
Thank you to our readers, contributors, and the entire startup community for being a part of this journey. Here’s to the next 10,000 articles and beyond, and to a successful 10th EU-Startups Summit in Malta!
