Startups for Tomorrow Festival 2026
The SFT Festival is the annual conference of Startups for Tomorrow e.V., back for its third edition under the motto "Where Growth & AI meets Impact". Across three stages at smartvillage Bogenhausen in Munich, founders, investors and corporate changemakers dig into impact, marketing, growth and AI in keynotes, panels and deep dives — speakers include Viva con Agua co-founder Micha Fritz, woom founder Marcus Ihlenfeld, dm chief product officer Kerstin Erbe and Fynn Kliemann. Networking runs all day, from "Meet the Founder" sessions to a Festival Buddy matchmaking round, before the Pitch (Reverse) Night — founders performing each other's ideas, karaoke-style — closes the main program. Doors open at 9:00, the program runs from about 9:45 to 19:00, followed by the Aftershow-Play and an invite-only Investors Dinner. Tickets start at 89 EUR for NGOs, students and the evening-only Pitch Night pass.
