Investors

For our guest investors, Techsylvania is the most effective way to observe the Eastern Europe technology ecosystem, at a glance.

We welcome investors from all around the world to meet rising startups during our Startup Avalanche pitching competition, as well as during Satellite events and private events.

 

Our Techsylvania guest investors funds collectively manage more than $116 billion. Yet, it’s not only the access to resources that counts—it’s a pretty diverse crowd, where angel investors, serial entrepreneurs, representatives of multi-billion funds bring their knowledge together. All you have to do is ask. Their insights not only help startup founders reassess their business opportunities, but also encourage them to rethink their products for growth and global expansion.

What are the investors looking for?

“It’s a conference where people from one of the emerging hubs in Eastern Europe are very eager to learn and to tell and to show. If you want to understand Eastern Europe, you should visit Cluj.”

“Come see specifically how technologies are evolving here and who are the people building on it, because it is different than what I see in Silicon Valley.”
