TRUESDAYS ARE BACK!
After a short break, we are bringing our&your favorite, the most packed startup and tech meetup back to our home venue – Radlická Kulturní Sportovna in Prague.
This edition, as always, brings together the Czech tech and startup community: founders, investors, operators, and people building across product, tech, growth, and operations.
If you are:
• building a startup
• thinking about starting one
• investing in early-stage companies
• working in product, tech, growth, or operations
then this evening is for you.
SPEED-DATING
⚠️ Speed-dating starts at 7:15 PM. Each month investors and mentors provide four exclusive 10-minute slots for startups. These sessions allow startups to pitch their ideas, discuss their business models, and explore potential partnerships or investment opportunities. Startups can select the investor or mentor they want to meet based on their expertise or focus area.
‼️We strongly recommend preparing ahead of time before booking to make the most of these 10 minutes. ‼️ Research the investor or mentor you want to meet with, understand their portfolio, and learn about their areas of interest. This preparation will help you tailor your pitch and maximize the value of the meeting. Remember, this could be a life-changing opportunity, so use the time wisely! Please note that meetings may be canceled if the fit is not suitable for the mentor/investor.

SPEED-DATING
✅ Max 4 Meetings per Startup
To keep it fair for everyone, each startup can book up to 4 investor/mentor meetings during Speed-Dating. Each investor or mentor offers 4 × 10-minute slots, so we can open the format to as many founders as possible.
Come Prepared
Do your homework: check each investor’s focus (stage, sector, geography), prepare a 2–3 minute pitch and know what you want – feedback, intro or follow-up.
🎯 Book Only Relevant Investors
Please don’t book meetings just to “collect logos”. If your startup clearly doesn’t fit an investor’s focus, we may cancel or reassign your slot to another founder.
🔁 Prioritise New Connections
If you’ve already had a proper 1:1 meeting with an investor, don’t book them again in Speed-Dating. We want to create new matches, so we reserve the right to cancel duplicate bookings and free the spot for someone else.
*We’re currently building the speed-dating line-up with top early-stage investors and emerging funds — registration opens soon.
