Our annual gathering
Innovation and Startup Investment Forum
The annual gathering that brings entrepreneurs, investors and institutions together around innovation and the funding of startups.
Why it exists
Ideas are not enough.
An ecosystem does not grow on ideas alone. It grows through the meetings that turn them into projects, and through the funding that makes them possible.
Every year we bring together the people who drive innovation, entrepreneurs, investors, institutions and talent, around a single ambition, helping the projects that matter emerge and find their funding.
The forum is not an isolated event. It extends the support work we carry out all year long, and it accelerates its effects.
