The PIRATE Summit
PIRATE Summit brings together the movers and shakers of the digital world.
We’re Europe’s largest invitation-only conference for early-stage startups, investors, and corporate executives.
The PIRATE Summit represents true grassroots entrepreneurship: authentic, crazy & real.
#intheblack
When we were thinking about building a startup conference in 2010 we wanted to organize it around the people that have the urge to create something meaningful. At their own pace. Around founders. And that’s why we called it PIRATE Summit.
Being profitable should be cool and celebrated. We need more founders that are proud of it and talk about it that way. Founders that build businesses on their own terms. That’s why we made #intheblack the overarching theme for PIRATE Summit 2019.
3 Days of ARRR
Day 1 – June 26th
Day 2 – June 27th
Day 3 – June 28th
It was a conference like no other on this planet! Great networking, quality workshops, chilled atmosphere and, most of all, truly amazing venue!
Tomasz Kopera, Ignico
Give, give, give ask.
Give everything without expecting anything in return. That is what the PIRATE Summit is about — an attitude, a set of value that makes the world a better place.
Laura Pfromm, Wayra
Can’t remember the last time I was given so many valuable advice/life lessons and started putting in place the roots of lots of future initiatives!
I thank you all #Pirates for your giving heARRRts! May we see each other again!
Gizelle Ikarezi, AngelHack
PIRATE Summit is one of the most powerful Summits for real networking between #innovators, #vendors, #startups… certainly the craziest one.
Paolo Raineri, Knowage
