Why this matters to European startups and the EIC community
Tech.eu Summit is a high profile gathering for the European technology ecosystem. Since 2013 the conference has sought to bring together startup founders, operators, investors, corporates, policy makers, academics and journalists to discuss growth and policy for the European tech landscape. Themes for 2023 include FinTech, HealthTech, SaaS, Deep Tech, Mobility and Sustainability. For EIC-backed or prospective startups the event can be an opportunity for visibility and connections.
Agenda highlights and themes to watch
The Tech.eu Summit programme covers a broad range of topics across two main stages. Sessions address scaling and international growth, cleantech and energy transition, patient centric health technologies, space and quantum technologies, ethical and applied AI, and ecosystem building. The mix includes panels with venture capitalists, corporate innovation leaders and policymakers. For founders the most immediate potential benefits are networking, investor meetings and learning practical approaches to scaling in Europe and beyond.
Practical considerations and a cautious reading
The ticket allocation is limited and will not be large enough to satisfy demand across the whole EIC community. Online access provides a practical alternative but offers less opportunity for the informal networking that often drives funding and partnerships. Attendance at an event is not the same as endorsement by the EIC or the European Commission. The announcement itself carries a disclaimer that the information is for knowledge sharing and should not be interpreted as the official view of the European Commission or other organisations.

The information about the ticket reservation is shared for knowledge and community support. It should not be taken as an official position of the European Commission or any other body.
