About a month ago, we had a simple idea: gather more VCs in one place, at the same time, across different ecosystems. This week, that idea turned into two evenings - bringing together 15+ regional investors and founders in Zagreb and Ljubljana. No agenda, just direct conversations and the right people showing up.
About a month ago, we had a simple idea: gather more VCs in one place, at the same time, across different ecosystems.
No formal agenda. No stage. Just a chilled atmosphere where founders could meet active investors before starting their fundraising rounds, and VCs could access early-stage dealflow before companies hit the market. This week, that idea turned into reality.
We traveled from Zagreb to Ljubljana, bringing together regional investors and founders in a more direct, informal setting.
2 cities. 2 evenings. €2B+ AUM in the room.
The format was simple: 15+ regional early-stage investors. A limited number of founders. Direct access.
Each evening started with quick introductions - VCs presenting their funds and current investment focus. After that, the room opened for direct conversations. We had no idea what to expect, or even who would show up. Turns out, the right people did.
Investors traveled from across the region: the Czech Republic, Hungary, Austria, Slovenia, and Croatia. Founders came ready to connect, ask questions, and start building relationships with VCs they'd only known by name.
The atmosphere was exactly what we wanted - chilled, honest, and energizing.
Big thanks to Todor Valev, Matyas Völgyi, Vaclav Ryslink, Gerald Pollak, Tina Kastrevc, Jakub Krikava, Reka Hidas, Mikolaj Kaim, Ante Bilic, Jan Faflik, Tien Nguyen, Monika Mikac, and Stevica Kuharski for taking a ride with us. And to all the founders who showed up ready to connect - this wouldn't have worked without you.
We're already thinking about the next one.
The format works. The energy was right. And the feedback from both sides was clear: more of this, please.
See you on the road.
