⚡ The Format

Forget keynotes, sponsor talks, and filler content. This event is structured around:

• Rapid-fire live product demos — all packed into 30 minutes
• Open networking with food and drinks
• Direct conversations with the founders building these tools

Ask the CEOs and CTOs anything. See the products running live. Find what actually solves your problems.

🏆 Why Y Combinator Matters

Y Combinator is the world's most prestigious startup accelerator, founded in 2005 in Silicon Valley. With a 0.5% acceptance rate — more selective than Harvard — YC has backed companies like Airbnb, Stripe, Reddit, Coinbase, and Dropbox. Historically, YC tops global venture capital performance with a remarkable 176% annual historical return.

The founders presenting here went through that programme, learned to ship at Silicon Valley speed, and chose to come back to build specifically for European customers. They bring YC's rapid iteration methodology together with deep technical execution.
