🌅Welcome to #NewHorizons! - words I will never forget (take a look at the video linked below to see why) 🌅
“Let’s make it about the ecosystem and let's make it big”, were the words of Thomas, during my first week at Vsquared Ventures, when him and I brainstormed on how we would shape an event, we had decided to put on the books. Which was fitting, since breaking down barriers, persistence and resilience, were the themes we pinned down for the event.
Little did I know that around 5 months, countless brainstorming sessions with the best team, numerous debates on design, exchanges with our partners on seemingly all channels existing, being grateful for coding skills of team members (shoutout to Ferdinand), and more requests than I can count to send the invite to someone who should also really come (no tool seemed good enough), we arrived at what we coined #NewHorizons! Tommy’s words rang true.
Over 200 people shaping the #deeptech ecosystem came together. The result: a day full of inspiring panels with pioneers discussing the sectors trajectory in the future, talks by founders re-defining their respective industries, and a dinner, turned party, turned overtime for the DJ. Inspiration and innovation laid in the air and it was unequivocally worth it.
