Migrant Founders. Real Talk. Real Europe.

Most startup events in Europe look the same. Same stage, same slides, same people.

Beyond Borders 2026 is different, not because we say so, but because the people on stage built something real under conditions most founders never face: wrong passport, wrong network, wrong accent.

Three founders talk about what actually happened. An investor explains why she bets on people most VCs overlook. An ecosystem builder shows where the gaps are and who's already closing them.

Then three people from across Europe sit down for one conversation: What actually moves the needle, and what's just noise?

Network. Capital. Mindset. They'll tell you what actually changed their trajectory, who opened the door, and what no accelerator ever taught them.

Speaker: Ana Barjasic, entrepreneur, angel investor, and policy advisor. Former Board Member of the European Innovation Council. Recognised among Europe's top 100 most influential women in startups and VC three years running.

More speakers TBA.

The room will be small. The conversations won't be.
