On April 29-30, 2021, we’re going to host our annual EU-Startups Summit in beautiful Barcelona! At the event we’ll showcase a selection of Europe’s hottest startups and come together to learn from some of the most successful European entrepreneurs of our time.
The EU-Startups Summit will gather over 1,500 founders, startup enthusiasts, corporates, angel investors, VCs, and media from across Europe. The two-day event is a great opportunity for networking, and a meeting point for aspiring entrepreneurs and investors who are aiming to build international tech companies. We’ll have fireside chats with internationally successful founders, great networking opportunities (with a dedicated networking app), workshops, and an exciting pitch competition with 15 finalists – selected from about 1,000 applicants!
