Welcome to the investor experience powered by How to Web, where we gather to discuss best practices for investing and collaboration.
The Investor ticket for the How to Web Conference grants access to Venture in CEE.
In its 8th edition, the event will highlight the best practices for investing and collaboration with some of the leading players in the wider European and CEE industry, LPs, investors, emerging fund managers and business professionals interested in VC. The event focuses on both the dynamics of the CEE investment landscape and insights from global funds that have an active interest in the region.
Venture in CEE focuses on conversations that nurture further the VC ecosystem. See below our confirmed speakers for 2023. The discussions will take you from a macro view of the investment and entrepreneurial European ecosystem to putting the lenses on the impressively-growing Eastern European tech scene. Expect insightful market analysis and in-depth flavors of AI and how recent technological changes are impacting the VC decision-making processes.
