The Team

By Builders, for Builders

Our mission

Put Eastern Europe on the global map.

How to Web exists to put the Eastern European startup & technology ecosystem on the global map. We believe this region is one of the most under-indexed sources of technical talent and ambition in the world, and our job is to make sure the right people meet at the right moment.

Every program we run — the conference, the reports, the founder and investor tracks — is built around a single goal: turn raw potential into companies, capital, and category leaders that the rest of the world can no longer ignore.

Team

The people building it.

A small, hands-on group that has spent the last fifteen years working alongside the tech geeks, founders, operators, and investors shaping Eastern Europe.

Orchestrates the entire conference experience — agenda, stages, matchmaking, and the thousands of moving parts behind the scenes.
