The EBAN Congress is the European Business Angels Network's flagship annual event hosted in a different city each year to put the spotlight on a fast growing startup and investment ecosystem and connect it with the rest of the World. The 2023 edition, hosted in Thessaloniki Greece, is expecting hundreds of investors, startup founders and innovation stakeholders, who are coming together for a 3 day conference on 24-26 May to further accelerate the development of entrepreneurship and private investment in Greece and in the broader South East Europe region. We will co-host this year's edition with Enterprise Greece alongside HeBAN as an official partner. Why Thessaloniki: Its startup-friendly policies, well-established academic institutions, vibrant start-up scene, active business angel community, and the many innovation and research centers in the area, among many other reasons, make Thessaloniki a hotspot in the region when it comes to innovation. Furthermore, its strategic location at the crossroads of Europe, Asia, and Africa play a major role in attracting a diverse range of businesses and talent to this region. What to expect: At the Congress you can expect to meet hundreds of angels, VCs, and other early stage investors from all over Europe and the rest of the world; a selection of the best startups we can source from across our network of members and partners; high level institutional representatives, and any more key actors of the startup and investment community. The Congress will provide you with quality networking experiences throughout the three days; inspirational and informative speeches, workshops and panel discussions; and most importantly, a fun time in a productive atmosphere.
