In previous years, Startup Summit followed the classic tech conference formula: panels, fireside chats, investor 1:1s. But over time, founders told us it wasn’t delivering the kind of real, usable value they needed.

So we changed it. 
 

In 2025, we introduced a new approach: a founder-first retreat style format with fewer formal sessions. The ones we kept are practical, outcome-driven, and led by true experts designed to give founders tools and insights to implement immediately.

​

We also carved out space for what matters most to founders: connection. Dedicated time to meet other founders, share experiences, and build relationships that last.

​

The response? Exactly what we hoped for. So this is the new Startup Summit - more focused, more practical, and fully built around what founders actually want.

​

And it's here to stay.
