about Podim
Podim has evolved into the key regional platform for enabling learning and networking in the most valuable and time-efficient way. It is truly a life-changing experience.
Regional startup ecosystem epicenter
Podim is creating real value by bringing together and connecting renowned international investors, established corporations, and startups & scaleups from the Alps-Adriatic and Western Balkans regions. To provide maximum quality of learning and networking, we made a strategic decision not to accept more than 1,000 participants. Therefore, Podim is just the right size event to offer you easy access to personally meet top-notch speakers and get valuable time with investors, business executives, and other participants. Podim is the gateway to and from the region for efficient networking, making deals, and sharing experiences.
We will introduce the PODIM 2021 speakers to you soon.
The essence of our program is to provide practical advice, exchange knowledge and valuable experience, and provide key tips and tricks for business growth with Podim participants.
See who shared their knowledge and experience with us at PODIM 2020.
