Present your ideas
Demo Day is an opportunity for startups, established companies, students and investors to meet face-to-face.
Established startups' stories are about their trials, tribulations, and their path to success. This is your chance to peek behind the curtain of organizations, companies, entrepreneurs and brands that are on the cusp of changing lives and upending the status quo
New startups will be given the opportunity to pitch their ideas to the audience, showcase their latest innovation and receive feedback from experts. This way, they will get exposure to the entire ecosystem where they can exchange ideas with fellow entrepreneurs and corporate leaders in an environment conducive for learning, knowledge sharing and networking.
Get expert advice
Expert advice will be shared and made available on a range of professional topics, including finance and investment, legal issues, recruitment and culture, marketing and media, and much more.
The purpose is to get all the components of the startup ecosystem to come together and collaborate in order to ensure that those projects get traction.

Demo Day's main goal is to spread innovation among startups and help them succeed.
