Ready to learn? Check out these educational talks at the EU-Startups Summit! #StartUps

EU-Startups-Summit-2021The 7th edition of the EU-Startups Summit is right around the corner and we couldn’t be more excited! On the 28th-30th of April, around 1,500 founders, tech teams, angel investors, venture capital firms, corporates, accelerators, and startup mentors will come together to celebrate European entrepreneurship.

So that you can make the best of this virtual extravaganza, we’ve shuffled around the agenda into two main sections: mornings are for educational talks, and afternoons are for inspirational interviews with successful founders.

This means that every morning of the Summit will be dedicated to one of the most important things for entrepreneurs: Education. Along with inspiring words from founders, investors and interesting startup figures, and incredible networking opportunities, the EU-Startups Summit has prepared highly educational talks for you to learn about all kinds of topics. 

The best part of it? With our educational talks talks, you’ll get to learn from the most interesting minds of the ecosystem from the comfort of your own home.
