You all heard the rumor that while participating in Startup Lithuania Roadshow 2013 startups:

• got investment from foreign investors
• were invited to participate in Elevator accelerator in Tel Aviv
• were invited to locate company in Level39 (the largest FinTech accelerator space in London)
• signed partnership agreements

We officially announce that all this information is TRUE! Startup Lithuania Roadshow is your bridge to the most startup friendly ecosystems in the world. It is dedicated to investor ready startups, which are looking for seed or venture funding. The process consists of three parts:

1. best local and freshly developed startups are selected
2. they attend extensive pitch training with international experts
3. they travel to pitch to investors and partners abroad.

The bridge is being build by Enterprise Lithuania and Startup Lithuania for the second year in a row.

This year we are coming back with a quick acceleration and power to conquer startup world with a focus to arrange as many 1-on-1 meetings with investors and potential partners as possible!  Startups will attend conferences and spend few more days to meet investors in these cities:
