On November 26th, the exclusive matchmaking event of the Start2 Group Founders and investors will once again be brought together – this time with a focus on quality, deep tech, and real-life conversations. Instead of traditional pitches, participants can expect curated roundtable discussions tailored to the investors' individual interests.
The "Skip the Stage" concept replaces stage presentations with short, one-minute startup pitches. This leads directly to intensive discussions that provide valuable insights and concrete follow-ups. This saves founders time and allows them to speak with investors who are genuinely interested in their technology.
Cashwalk reimagined: Applications until 31 October
The program is looking for technology-driven startups in the fields of cybersecurity, frontier AI, quantum computing, and dual-use technology. Those who are ready for serious investor discussions with their deep-tech startup should apply now. Applications will be presented to investors in advance, who will then vote for their favorites.
The event's format combines inspiration, exchange, and targeted networking. An opening discussion with industry experts will highlight current trends in the European deeptech landscape. This will be followed by one-minute pitches, dynamic fishbowl discussions, and curated one-on-one meetings. At the conclusion, the most engaged participants will receive one of the Engagement Awards.
The renewed format is intended to create a platform where founders, investors, and companies can establish genuine connections – for sustainable partnerships and concrete investments.
More information about the Cashwalk and how to apply can be found on the website.
