We believe in creating small, intimate events that make dealmaking and high level networking the priority. Our events focus heavily on international guests and are always limited in attendance numbers. Startups are selected after a thorough screening process, and investors and corporations are personally invited. Our events include trained startup pitches, investor panels, keynote speakers, expert roundtable discussions, and abundant opportunities for meetings.
