Introducing
Start Global.

WHAT WE DO

Give young entrepreneurs and leading investors the platform to join forces and create something remarkable.

WHY WE DO IT

To enable the next generation of entrepreneurs to turn their ideas into reality. We want to be a part of shaping the future of our ecosystem and help solve society’s challenges through entrepreneurship.

HOW WE DO IT

Through our annual START Summit and START Hack events. With START Fellowship, our philanthropic incubator/accelerator programs. Through the global professional network we’ve built, which continues to grow. And with the help of our incredible partners.

Our mission

To fuse the world of business and tech and empower the next generation of entrepreneurs.

To generate opportunities for ambitious students to kick-start their careers by building a collaborative global network that brings together industry leaders, investors, students and young entrepreneurs.

To give everyone the chance to be in the right place at the right time.

Our Vision

First the start-up space, then the world! We want to see start-ups made successful and the world of entrepreneurship diversified with voices from across Europe and beyond.

We’re the voice of the entrepreneurial ecosystem and we empower the next generation of entrepreneurs.

Everyone should have an equal opportunity to have their ideas heard. And we’re here to provide the megaphone.

Our Values

WE STRIVE FOR EXCELLENCE

We aim for excellence in everything — our events, workshops, competitions, relationships, lessons, partnerships and support. And we celebrate excellent results because of it.

WE'RE VISIONARIES

We’re bold, courageous and do things differently from the norm. Got a big idea? We’re here for it. The only limit to what you can achieve is your imagination.

Path 282

WE'RE TRANSPARENT

From the way we communicate to how we respect other perspectives and show honesty in everything we do. All of this ties together with our unified, shared vision.

WE SEEK GROWTH

We never sit still. We’re curious and constantly challenge our limits — it’s the only way we grow past our potential.

MEET OUR PARTNERS

We wouldn’t be where we are without them. From NGOs and government institutions to international corporations and independent businesses, our partners believe in the START Global mission, share our passion for entrepreneurship, and make our events possible.

Big players in business and digital spheres are the people at the heart of the ever-expanding START Global network, helping us deliver our high-quality business development programs and nurture the next generation of thinkers and doers.

We’re always looking for partners to help us change the world. Ready to join us?

BECOME A START GLOBAL PARTNER

Designed for the next generation

And we’re not-for-profit — two core factors that make START Global the brand it is today.

We want to make good things happen. For the participants of our events, for those in our Fellowship program, for investors searching for the brightest young talent and for our valued partners, too.

That’s why we’re constantly investing in the START Global mission. Readdressing the way we do things, maximizing our offering, developing our partner relationships and scoping out the latest and greatest in the world of business and tech so we keep meeting our targets for excellence.
