We also offer special exposure via sponsorship tickets with extra perks, as compared to regular pitch tickets.

INTERVIEWS & FIRESIDE CHATS

For example, Louis Lehot (Senior Partner Foley Law) talks with Vish Misra (legendary former President of TIE) about "How to make a soft landing in Silicon Valley", or Deborah Magid (IBM) is being interviewed by Silicon Valley veteran Jim Simmons.

NETWORKING

We designed the two days for plenty of opportunity to network. The evening event in a more casual way, but also the various coffee breaks on the conference day, coupled with the networking opportunity at the end of the official program. This is the stuff where connections are made, and it is not unheard of that deals happen too.

DEMO TABLES

The dedicated Startup Demo space gives investors and other visitors all-day access to your dedicated area/ Here you can discuss your individual business opportuntiy and gauge in one-on-one meeting the investor interest.
