I think the value of human-to-human interaction is just very difficult to replace. Even the best online interaction platforms lose a lot of that value. It’s just very different to be person-to-person.

The highlight for me is just the sheer number of startups and investors. I haven’t seen this kind of concentration of both startups and investors from this region anywhere else.

The event where you can meet investors, corporates, other startups and definitely make a lot of meetings for your potential business.

The core values of Podim empower us to shape the future we envision.

If you’re an entrepreneur, come talk to investors. If you’re an investor, come talk to entrepreneurs.

It’s the place to be!

The conference itself, the speakers, especially the matchmaking in the Deal Room, it’s amazing.

Conferences can be a great way to develop new ideas and gain experience, but PODIM is a level higher.

I would recommend everybody to come to Podim because it’s a great ecosystem, a great network near to your and our home as well. For all the Austrians out there and all the rest of the region, join the meeting next time.

Podim is always worth the trip – great atmosphere and great crowd!

Come to Maribor, it’s beautiful. People are friendly, food is good, great wine. You can’t go wrong coming here even if you want to walk in the beautiful park.

Podim is one of the biggest conferences regarding startups in this region and this part of the world.
