The final 24-hour shot clock is ticking: Startup Fair 2018 is just around the corner. These days will be a blast for anyone who’s anyone in the startup scene. So clear your schedule for the next two days and make sure you‘re there. Why? Taking place on May 16-17 in Vilnius Tech Park, Startup Fair is where founders meet investors, engineers meet bizdevs, knowledge is spread, and partnerships are made.

The programme of Startup Fair 2018 will consist of three key elements: the B2B part with pre-scheduled 1:1 meetings between international investors and startups, the Pitch Battle where startups will compete for 100 000 EUR investment and other prizes. Last but not least –  the international conference.

Join others at the international Startup Fair Conference to learn about the latest innovations in tech. Both days happening on Main Stage powered by Telesoftas, the conference will include keynotes, presentations, discussion panels and other content sessions covering most in-demand areas of business: Growth, Venture Capital, Fintech, Blockchain & ICO’s. Some of the most appreciated local and international speakers, like Simon Saneback, Kevin Koym and Thomas Plantenga, will discuss Lithuania becoming the center for fintech and how it is pushing the bar with ICO among other exciting topics.

It is a place to be if you want to make partnerships and attract investments. During the B2B networking 30+ international investors and 50+ startups from Lithuania and the Baltic region will meet at pre-scheduled 1:1 meetings to generate ideas and discuss partnerships.
