WHAT IS THE STARTUP WORLD CUP?
Startup World Cup is a prestigious global conference and competition designed to foster innovation and entrepreneurship by bringing together startups, venture capitalists, entrepreneurs, and top-tier technology CEOs from around the world. Organized by Pegasus Tech Ventures, the competition features over 100 regional events across six continents, culminating in a Grand Finale held in San Francisco.
Startups participating in the regional events compete for a chance to win a spot in the Grand Finale, where they then compete for a $1,000,000 investment prize. This prize can significantly boost their ventures through financial support and global recognition. The event also offers ample opportunities for networking, corporate partnerships, and insights from industry experts, making it a comprehensive platform for startups to accelerate their growth and impact.
