About the event:

At Balderton Capital and Connect Ventures we are bullish about the European startup ecosystem. We believe that the next breakthrough in tech could start up anywhere. We are convinced that Italian founders and the Italian scene are well posed to lead the next generation of tech champions.

By hosting this event, we aim at meeting the best Italian founders and sharing tips, advices and the criteria for our investment decisions. We want to raise the bar: open up the Italian tech scene to international investors and give Italian founders a place in the European tech scene.
