"The innovative format, coupled with exceptional opportunities for interaction and a top-class selection of team members, made it an outstanding event." Dr. Klaas Rackebrandt, CEO Scalania AG
Since the beginning in 2016, startups have been the DNA of the Waterkant Festival, where we make startups from Northern Europe visible and increase their chances of success. We support the initiation of collaborations between startups and SMEs, connect talents and facilitate investments.
For startups_
Exclusive access to investors_
Participants have the opportunity to meet business angels, venture capitalists and other investors in an exclusive setting.
Networking with other start-ups_
Unique opportunity to network with other startups from Northern Europe and discover potential cooperation opportunities.
Media presence_
Taking part in the vernissage offers you the chance to raise your profile, as the event will be attended by media from northern Europe. Come on board and show the world what you've got!
For investors
Direct interaction with founders
The exclusivity of the Investment Vernissage allows you to come into direct contact with the founders of the participating start-ups and understand their visions.
Early access to promising start-ups_
Get the chance to meet promising startups in person before they gain wider attention.
Market insights and trend spotting_
Investors gain insights into current developments in various sectors and identify potentially successful market trends at an early stage.
Grow with your startup_
To achieve this, we work with carefully selected business angels and venture capitalists from Sweden, Schleswig-Holstein, Hamburg and Berlin that you can trust and bring them together with capital-seeking and investment-ready startups at an investment vernissage. This will take place at a unique location with a sea view in a very exclusive environment. So secure your place now at the second Waterkant Investment Vernissage, which we are organizing in cooperation with our dear friends from Startup Verband Schleswig-Holstein. Our main focus areas are Energy/Green Tech, AI, Open Source and Ocean/Maritime, but startups from other areas are also welcome.
Get in Touch!
