Startup Live Budapest

Please make sure to arrive on time. Get some coffee and make yourself comfortable.

We understand what it's like to start a business from scratch because the 10.000+ participants who joined our programs - and we ourselves - have all been there already. So, let's get you aligned for the weekend to give your business (idea) a head start.

If you're working on your own startup (idea) it's now your time to hit the stage and introduce your business idea in 90 sec or less. We want to get to know you to determine how we can best help you over our acceleration program and beyond. If you're not working on your own business idea but want to support one of our founders with your special skills and know-how, now is the time to listen to the pitches and choose your favorite.

People with business background (marketing, sales, etc.), design expertise, or IT/programming skills are always needed in a complementary team-setting. As founder you'll now have 30 min to roam around and convince our talented individuals to join you. As an individual, make sure to talk to your favorite projects to find out which one to join.

After a quick and yummy (you'll see) team building activity making sure that everyone gets to know each other and feels pumped to start working, we introduce you to our proven working method and let you set goals for the weekend.

Think big, start small, act bold! Our trained contributors are here to teach you in Business Modelling and provide you with working materials tailored to your needs in order to create or refine your business model.
