Secure your spot at the StartUP Conference NEXT
If you are in Sofia and have had your weekend plans disrupted by the snow, fear not – Bulgaria’s ever-vibrant startup scene offers a great event to keep you busy while rubbing shoulders with experienced entrepreneurs and like-minded people. And if you aren’t in Bulgaria, what better reason for a weekend abroad then the annual edition of the StartUP Conference NEXT? Tickets are still on sale, so get yours now before they’re gone.
Taking place this Saturday and Sunday, 30 Nov.-1 Dec., this is the country’s oldest entrepreneurship forum and this year, it promises more excitement than ever. “What is new this year is that we have a lot of foreign lectors, as well as different accelerators from Bulgaria and the rest of Europe, such as StartUP Bootcamp, #1seed and others,” said Martin Linkov, one of the event’s organisers and member of the StartUP Foundation.
Speakers include well-known names Shira Abel of Hunter & Bard, Jordan Schlipf of #1seed, Samer Karam of Seeqnce, Marc Wesselink of StartUP Bootcamp, Elvin Guri of River Styxx Capital and Stavros Messins of The Cube in Athens. The Bulgarian side is strongly represented by staples such as Dilyan Dimitrov from Eleven, Lyuben Belov from LAUNCHub, Alexander Mihailov from betahaus | Sofia and Svetlin Nakov from Software University.
Through a series of lectures, round tables, and practical seminars, the event will offer “great networking opportunities and first-hand stories by starting, successful and failed entrepreneurs,” promised Linkov. And with emotions still running hot locally, there may well be some political discussions, too.
So, if you arean entrepreneur in action or in spirit, do not miss out on the opportunity to exchange some ideas and learn from those, who have traversed the thorny startup road before you.
