START Global partners with Brella for a world-class networking experience

Helsinki, January 30, 2023 - Brella announces partnership with START Global for the upcoming START Summit 2023.

As Europe's leading student-run conference for entrepreneurship and technology, the START Summit is the perfect opportunity for attendees to connect with like-minded individuals and make valuable connections that can help to drive their business forward. 

With Brella’s advanced matchmaking algorithm, START Global will ensure that attendees and sponsors have a truly unique and personalized networking experience by connecting them with their ideal partners based on shared interests. Brella is excited to be a part of this premier event and help attendees make the most out of their time at the conference.

"With the growth we‘ve experienced at START Summit and START Hack over the past years, the demand for an exceptional digital infrastructure for networking, matchmaking, and much more has grown exponentially," says START Global President, Max Keller.

"We are very excited to be working with one of the industry leaders, Brella, to bring everyone at START Summit x Hack 2023 an experience worthy of the title „Europe‘s leading event uniting the next generation of entrepreneurs with the existing entrepreneurial ecosystem."

Brella’s magic is in their AI-powered matchmaking algorithm that will connect you with all your top networking matches so that you can schedule valuable 1:1 meetings with like-minded networkers based on your shared interests.

Brella has proven its true value by creating millions of meaningful connections and being the event supplier of choice at thousands of onsite events. Brella also involves all users in a large-scale reforestation project; for every 10 meetings booked via Brella’s app, one tree will be planted. So far, we have planted over 8,800 mangroves in southeast Asia, equaling over 1,3 million sq ft. of new forest.

"We’re delighted to partner with START Global," says Brella CEO and Co-founder Markus Kauppinen. "They share our vision of smart networking-driven events where attendees can get the quality networking and life-changing connections they deserve."
 
This time, START Summit will focus on the challenges entrepreneurs face in the new market environment with their new topic, Reaching for Resilience. They will showcase how entrepreneurs embrace losses, build resilience, find the courage to stand up again, and dare to conquer uncertainty. Founders and investors will speak frankly about their biggest failures and how to pick themselves back up again. They will explain how to deal with repetitive setbacks, employee layoffs, and missing targets. But our speakers will also spread a ray of hope in these challenging times by giving instructions on how to benefit from the current situation.
