Over a decade of growth, innovation, and support for the startup scene in Frankfurt and the Rhine-Main region—that’s the Pitch Club. What began as a response to the challenges of a fragmented startup scene has evolved into a cornerstone of the regional ecosystem. Since our founding, we have supported 346 exciting startups on their journey and presented them to more than 1,320 investors. Our fo

The Frontier Research Club is a curated forum for rigorous, technical discussion at the frontier of AI. We convene researchers from the frontier labs, Stanford, Berkeley, and the teams building in production to examine concrete work — papers, methods, and results — with a bias toward assumptions, evaluation methodology, failure modes, and what would count as convincing evidence. Each session featu

A one-day summit at the German Cancer Research Center in Heidelberg aimed at founders, investors and innovators in health and life sciences, run by DKFZ together with encourageventures. Doors open at 09:00 and the day closes at 17:00, structured as three moderated sessions built around an opening keynote by Martina Pfeifer, a founder keynote after lunch, and an investor keynote in the afternoon. The morning is given over to two pitch blocks, one for early-stage startups and a second for rising startups. Two panel discussions anchor the afternoon: one on the translation of biomedical innovations, with speakers from the National Network Office GCT Germany at BIH, BioLabs and NCT Heidelberg, and one on building high-growth, inclusive ecosystems, with speakers from PAICON, encourageventures and ESMT. The lunch break runs Meet-the-Founders tables and founder-and-investor speed dating, and after closing remarks at 16:00 the programme finishes with open networking until the 17:00 close. Welcome remarks come from Silke Uhrig-Schmidt and Marieke Essers of DKFZ, and the event is kindly supported by InnovationLab and the H3 Health Hub.

Autonomous Intelligence Forum #2 Wer heute KI einsetzt, gibt Daten preis, Kontrolle ab und Entscheidungen weiter – oft, ohne es genau zu wissen. Datensouveränität ist damit keine juristische Fußnote mehr, sondern eine strategische Grundfrage. Und AI-Harnesses – die Infrastruktur, in der autonome Systeme laufen, überwacht und kontrolliert werden – entscheiden darüber, ob Unternehmen ihre KI wirklic

MunichTech EXPO 2026 connects startups, investors, corporates, universities, research institutions, and innovation ecosystems from Europe and the Gulf region, with a focus on AI, DeepTech, innovation, digital transformation, and entrepreneurship.

IdeaLab! is the student-run founders' conference of WHU – Otto Beisheim School of Management, held at the Stadt- und Kongresshalle in Vallendar on 25–26 September 2026 under the theme 'Ignite.

The two days mix keynote talks, hands-on workshops and startup pitch formats, with separate paths for founders, investors, students and professionals — founders pitch and meet investors, investors get curated meetings with pre-selected startups. Past speakers include Oliver Samwer, Verena Pausder and Raisin co-founder Tamaz Georgadze. Entry is by application rather than straight purchase, with ticket tiers running from student through investor.

LOVE DISRUPTION '26 is LOVEDIS's once-a-year flagship day at the Lokschuppen in Marburg, where the Mittelhessen ecosystem of startups, Mittelstand, research and politics gathers in one building. Around 300 curated guests work across three innovation clusters — Construction, Industry and Health Tech — with AI as the cross-cutting theme, alongside sessions on business succession, European sovereignty in the AI race and sustainable industrial transformation. The day closes out the "Mission Construction" accelerator with partner–startup success stories, kicks off the new Industry batch, and adds a startup showcase, curated matchmaking and an afterparty. Entry is free, but places are limited and curated for a balanced mix of companies, startups, research and politics.

Founding is lonely, even with a team around you. Here, you'll get quiet time to focu

AI in recruitment is as buzzing as ever: Is it delivering candidates faster, or automatically discarding them based on technical glitches? And how do we curb the negative issues while still delivering useful products? The EU AI Act brings these questions back on the table. While its delay has certainly brought some relief to product and compliance teams, issues of fairness, autonomy, and general p

When machines decide faster than humans can watch, does the right to a human decision still make sense, or has it become a cumbersome formality rather than an actual safeguard? Article 22 GDPR and the EU AI Act guarantee forms of human involvement in high-stakes automated decisions. Yet agentic AI increasingly operates at speeds and levels of autonomy that make meaningful human oversight difficult

Your ideal clients are already on Instagram. The question is whether they can find you, and whether they'll trust you when they do. Most early-stage startups don't have an ad budget, a marketing team, or months to burn on a channel that might not work. What they do have is a founder who knows the problem better than anyone. Organic Instagram turns that knowledge into a daily lead engine: it forces

You can have the right product, the right market, and money in the bank, and still watch it all stall. Not because the idea was wrong. Because of who you brought into the business. Every founder makes a string of hiring decisions that decide whether the company scales or slowly grinds to a halt, most of them fast, under pressure, on gut feel.
