Price
€210
A two-day business-growth summit at the World Trade Center on Strawinskylaan, aimed at founders and commercial leaders looking for partnerships, investment and distribution. The programme mixes stage content with structured matchmaking. From 09:00, tickets 210 euro.
the matchmaking is the product here rather than the talks, so it earns its place if you arrive with a specific ask - a distribution partner, a first enterprise customer, an investor conversation. Best for founders and commercial leads actively selling or raising; skip it if you want technical content.
