As Lisbon prepares to host Web Summit 2024 from November 11th to 14th, Sploro is excited to announce our participation in this premier global technology conference. Building upon the momentum of our previous engagements, we are eager to immerse ourselves in the dynamic ecosystem that Web Summit fosters, connecting with innovators, entrepreneurs, and thought leaders from around the world.
Web Summit has long been recognized as a melting pot for the world’s most ambitious startups, accelerators, and the broader tech community. With over 70,000 attendees expected this year, the event serves as a nexus where groundbreaking ideas are exchanged, partnerships are forged, and the future of technology is shaped. For Sploro, this platform offers an invaluable opportunity to engage with the global tech ecosystem, share our insights, and explore collaborative ventures that drive innovation forward.
Representing Sploro at Web Summit 2024 is our esteemed colleague, Maja Horvat. With a wealth of experience in innovation services and a deep understanding of funding mechanisms, Maja is keen to connect with European deep tech startups seeking funding opportunities. She is available throughout the week to discuss how Sploro can support your venture through our expertise in cascade funding and innovation management.
Maja is actively involved in the EmpoWomen initiative, a two-year program (2024-2025) funded by the European Union through its Horizon Europe Research and Innovation program. EmpoWomen aims to tackle the underrepresentation of women in the deep-tech sector, particularly in emerging European countries. The program offers a unique acceleration and mentoring experience, including non-repayable funding totaling €1.125 million, prizes, and services to 25 women-led deep-tech companies selected through a competitive process. The second Open Call is now open until December 2, 2024. Don’t miss your chance to apply!
Additionally, Maja can provide insights into the Women TechEU initiative, an EU-funded project supporting women leading deep-tech startup companies from Europe. The mission of Women TechEU is to create a more gender-balanced entrepreneurship ecosystem by offering €75,000 grants (non-dilutive finance) and personalized business development programs, including mentoring, coaching, and targeted training. The project plans to launch four calls for applications over two years, aiming to support a total of 160 beneficiaries.
In line with our commitment to making innovation accessible, we encourage startups to explore CascadeFunding.eu. This platform serves as a comprehensive resource for EU funding opportunities, providing insights into various programs designed to support innovative projects across Europe. Whether you’re a startup looking to scale or an entrepreneur with a groundbreaking idea, Cascade Funding Hub offers the tools and information necessary to navigate the funding landscape effectively.
We invite all attendees to connect with Maja during Web Summit 2024. Whether you’re interested in discussing funding opportunities, exploring potential collaborations, or simply sharing insights on the latest tech trends, Maja is eager to engage with you. To schedule a meeting, please reach out via LinkedIn or through the Web Summit app.
