Startup Olé 2017
For a more connected entrepreneur ecosystem
Startup Olé emerged in 2015 from a highly successful European project within Startup Europe (WELCOME - https://welcomestartup.eu/). The main objective of this project was to connect the startup ecosystems across Europe and advance European tech entrepreneurship. Although this project has now finished, Startup Olé persists as a unique event to drive entrepreneurship through effective collaboration. In fact, because of its origins, Startup Olé has become something that no other event has been able to achieve: A place where meaningful connections can be made with ALL the key players in the tech ecosystem.

The mix of antiquity and the future of technological innovation in Europe makes for a truly unique experience.
