International Founders Summit

The International Founders Summit is Germany’s stage for international entrepreneurship — bringing together high-potential international founders, investors, corporates, and key ecosystem leaders for one high-impact day.

Expect curated networking, inspiring keynotes, practical sessions, and startup pitches designed to spark real outcomes: partnerships, pilots, and funding conversations. The Summit also hosts the Grand Finale of the International Founders Award (IFA), where the winners of our Local Finals compete live on stage in front of a jury and the audience.
