Startup Grind

About the event

Startup Grind is built around founders, supporters and investors: the people who turn ideas into working businesses and keep testing the limits of what can be done.

Highlights

• Investors and fundraising: over 1,000 investors attend in search of the “next big thing”. The event is set up for concrete results, and past exhibitors have raised more than $1.5 billion through dedicated pitch sessions, “VC AMAs” and 1:1 investment meetings
• Speakers and workshops: market leaders such as Sam Altman and Ashton Kutcher, as well as founders from Y Combinator and Postmates. More than 175 sessions centre on a “full-stack exploration of the AI economy”, alongside practical workshops that give honest feedback on attendees’ businesses
• Networking: the event takes place at the centre of Silicon Valley, described as the “Mecca” of tech. Curated meetups in the Networking Tent, a Night Pub Crawl and a community-led atmosphere are meant to skip the “awkward part” of networking and encourage real conversations among more than 5,000 builders and founders
