Seedstars Summit 2019

84% of the world’s population is located in emerging markets.

Naturally, in order to reach the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) for 2030 defined by the UN, the focus, support and investments need to shift from developed regions to emerging markets.

Seedstars decided to lead this initiative by leveraging entrepreneurship and technology.

The world is full of opportunities for Impact Investing

Attending the Seedstars Summit is the best way to discover the most promising startups, the unicorns-to-be from Africa, Latin America, Asia, Middle East, North Africa, and Central and Eastern Europe; while at the same time learning about the tech trends in those regions and accessing a word-class network of global changemakers!
