Investment Vernissage

An exhibition of opportunities – where startups and investors connect.

Startups have been the DNA of the Waterkant Festival since 2016. We make startups from Northern Europe visible and increase their chances of success through access to capital. Our unique format brings together investment-ready startups primarily from the energy/greentech, AI, open source, ocean/maritime and life sciences (with a deep tech focus) directly with investors - without endless pitches, but with real, value-adding discussions at eye level.
