Global Challenges, Startup Solutions

The festival will feature thematic events, fun & energizing meetups, deep dives and deal-making throughout the Netherlands. Startup Fest Europe will be organized and fueled by a coalition of partners under leadership of StartupDelta.

‘Global challenges – like health, security, food security and clean energy – demand transformative, sustainable and technical solutions. Startups can play a major and potentially decisive role in solving these challenges. But to do so startups, scale-ups, investors, scientists and corporates must collaborate.

Startup Fest Europe 2017 will be a celebration of entrepreneurship and innovation bringing these innovators together’, says Startup Envoy and StartupFest co-founder Constantijn van Oranje (StartupDelta).
