The StartupCon was founded in 2014 for the following reasons: Startups are the national and international focus of politics and business. Europe in particular, wants to maintain and further expand its pioneering role. The aim is to support young start-ups with creative ideas and to help them with contacts.

The StartupCon provides founders with knowledge, contacts and the spirit of entrepreneurship. The focus is on networking the startup scene as well as establishing new cooperation’s and expanding synergies between SMEs, corporations and young innovative startups.

On 29th and 30th October 2019 it’s finally time again: StartupCon enters its sixth round! Germany’s largest start-up exhibition and conference will be a guest at Digital X and will take place for the first time this year at Koelnmesse.
