Think ahead to autumn now: we are once again taking four Munich startups to Slush 2026 in Helsinki. Applications for the package including entry, logo placement at the joint stand, and invitation to the side event are possible until August 16.

Europe is taking off – and Slush 2025 provides the proof. In Helsinki, the tech scene stages its century moment: 13,000 visitors, 6,000 startups, and a founder who is revered like a pop star in his home country. Anton Osika, the mind behind Lovable, the fastest-growing startup of all time, shows how an open-source experiment became a global AI unicorn. But his appearance stands for more than just a personal triumph: Europe stands at a historic turning point. Talent, ambition, and a maturing ecosystem meet structural brakes and the question of whether the continent will shape its own technological future. First published on: November 20, 2025
