Fewer celebrities, more content: Day 1 of Bits & Pretzels 2024

For the 11th time, Bits & Pretzels brings together founders, investors, industry leaders, and other startup enthusiasts. And anyone worried that the format might seem a bit dated after all these years can rest assured – because compared to previous editions, Bits & Pretzels has changed quite a bit. We share our impressions from the first day of the fair.

September 29, 2024

As in previous years, the Startup Expo 2024 will be split across both conference days, meaning different startups will exhibit on Sunday and Monday. A total of over 200 young companies will enjoy their own booth. Many of the exhibiting startups will also participate in the Bits pitch competition. There have also been changes here this year: Under the title "European Pitch Contest," startups from over 30 European countries will compete for the trophy. However, the competition itself remains the same: During the two days of the fair, the startups will compete against each other in topic-specific semifinals. The winners will then pitch on the main stage in front of a large audience on the evening of the second day of Bits. (Image: Munich Startup)
