About
In short, people from different backgrounds come together to present ideas, listen to new thoughts and get to know each other.
Participants come with their own business idea in an early stage, or in a supporting role aiming to join others to develop business drafts to a level, where they can be presented to investors. Interdisciplinary teams are formed to push the ideas forward in a creative environment. As a basis for a company, a business concept will be developed.
The process is accompanied by coaches, business angels, former start-up entrepreneurs and many more motivated participants.
The groups will receive feedback on their final presentation by a panel of experts. Apart from intensive working, the possibilities to build a network are without boundaries.Participants can talk with investors, sponsors and other participants.
Pitchtraining
A pitch is a short presentation of your idea and concept. It should usually only take a few seconds. At the STARTup Live we limit your pitch to 90 seconds.
Through the years we’ve noticed an AMAZING difference in the way people pitch when unschooled and after receiving some training. So. We train you.
On October 23rd, 15:00-18:00, we are organizing a pitch training for those who register as pitchers – it takes place at the Gentics HQ, Gonzagagasse 11/25, 1010 Vienna.
Come prepared, feedback and practice is what makes perfect.

Ideas can be generated everywhere, but pitching them at STARTeurope’s event STARTup Live increase the chance that it turns into something valuable. STARTup Live is an exciting concept where you can meet motivated and innovative people. I think it is extremely important for European cities to have events like this.
