Transfer Bitspiration Festival from Krakow to Warsaw it turned out to be right Decision

Warsaw welcomed the Polish stage start-ups, with arms wide open

Warsaw is a city friendly start -upom – such a proposal emerged at the start of the conference Bitspiration, during which the deputy mayor of Warsaw, Michal Olszewski, has expressed its support for the development of ecosystem start-upowego. City of Warsaw was a partner of the Organising meetings, present for two days at the Palace of Culture and Science. Representatives present at the Bitspiration start-ups, many gathered around their positions, and surveys assessing the conference assessed the City of Warsaw as one of the most interesting of their partners. It’s a good sign for the entire scene start-ups – among a loose atmosphere prevailing in the corridors of networking conferences could feel the mutual interest and dialogue between the representatives of government and industry start-ups. In addition to the people of the City of Warsaw, on stage and in the lobby of the conference also he appeared Sigrid Johannisse of the Dutch Ministry of Economic Affairs, which is responsible for program Startup Delta, which aims to develop a European stage start-ups and to strengthen its enough to become competitive to Silicon Valley . Sigrid stressed that Europe has a very good IT specialists and highly developed ecosystem of start-upowy. The only thing missing by Sigrid Europe to achieve the level of Silicon Valley, is the years of experience.



Good news for the Polish stage start-ups

The Warsaw edition attracted considerable Bitspiration media interest. One of the most important news, which was announced during the meeting, declared Peter Torstensen of Accelerace, the largest in the Nordic countries, the acceleration program. Peter announced that later this year plans to open an office in Poland Accelerace and begin to support our indigenous start-ups. There are many indications that it will be plenty to choose from – the winners selected by Arthur Kurasińskiego Aulerów the most innovative Polish people under 35 years old honored at the gala MIT Innovators Under 35 are just examples of that in recent years a lot has happened on the Polish stage start-ups and that our young entrepreneurs are increasingly recognized beyond the borders of our country.



Bitspiration is primarily a power of networking

June 22-23 at the Palace of Culture and Science was held the fourth edition of Bitspiration. Cyclical nature of the event apparently resulted in the strengthening of the Polish stage start-ups – present at the conference, investors, start-upowcy, journalists and mentors are people who know each other personally and very willing alluded talks and presented their ideas. In the corridors Bitspiration could meet every day elusive CEO of the most recognizable Polish start-ups (as even James Krzycha of Estimote) and get advice from investors from investment funds or accelerators (Marvin Liao from 500 Startups was available for participants throughout the two days of the meeting and during the afterparty). Bitspiration this meeting which, in addition to knowledge presented in lectures, is primarily other benefits: direct and valuable contacts, free advice from more experienced entrepreneurs and investors, and the media attention. Given the nature of the conference networkingowy, moving her from Krakow to Warsaw turned out to be the right decision – minion edition gathered in the heart of Warsaw a record number of participants from across the Polish and the whole world.
