It’s time to publish the first events for this year's festival!

This year, there are plenty of practical workshops from data mining, video editing, design and social media to programming, money laundering and testing out your first startup idea. The week will be kicked off in the office of Transferwise with a workshop on product building. More information on Future Founder track soon!

Generation Green is all about sustainability. The track brings together the green revolution in the startup world and beyond. For example, can fashion be sustainable? You can find answers to that question on Thursday by attending Kas mood saab olla jätkusuutlik? by Finest Fashion Site. You’ll surely want to see what a green office looks like! You have a chance to do that at Roofit.solar open office tour by roofit.solar! Whether you are working in the field of a circular economy, clean tech, green or blue tech or other similar fields, join our ranks of generation green! More events will follow soon.

In 2019, we are piloting first-ever Deal Day for investors and startups that will test a new format for matchmaking meetings. With the organizing team, we will avoid the feeling of “speed-dating” and will focus on quality interest. Startups who apply will get a chance to meet investors from Estonia and neighboring countries. Startups can register here.
