OPEN MIC

Every TRUESDAY, everyone has the opportunity to take the stage and introduce who they are hiring for their team. This is known as OPEN MIC, is increasingly becoming a favorite among our guests.

SPEED-DATING

A unique offer for early-stage startups was presented as we partnered with 7 esteemed investors from the Czech VC scene to create a special opportunity tailored just for them. This initiative provided startups with the chance to connect directly with these influential ecosystem players, engaging in meaningful conversations, receiving valuable feedback, and potentially securing investment for their ventures.

Each investor generously offered four 10-minute slots, allowing startups time to pitch their ideas, discuss their business models, and explore potential partnerships or investment opportunities.

Our speed-dating was as always fully packed with remarkable entrepreneurs and investors
