Nearly 150 Programs Await at the 10th Startup Safari Budapest
On April 8 - 9 Startup Safari Budapest returns once again, Hungary's largest startup ecosystem event. The special program line-up for this milestone event is now fully available, featuring professional lectures, panel discussions, workshops, and networking opportunities for all attendees over two days.

This year, Startup Safari will once again bring together over 200 speakers to discuss the most relevant topics and questions in the industry. Key themes include the role of low-cost AI platforms, fintech, and medtech, as well as cryptocurrency, which will be analysed under the leadership of Dr. Rita Halász.

Burnout will be the focus of two mindfulness instructors, while Eszter Varga will explore one of the most exciting topics of recent years, space tech innovations, both individually and in a team setting. The two-day event also offers numerous programs for those new to the startup world, while industry participants will have a rich selection to choose from.

One of the key partners of the conference is the EIT (European Institute of Innovation & Technology) Community Hub Hungary, which will host a discussion titled "Empower, Innovate, Transform: EIT Opportunities & Challenges," introducing visitors to the opportunities and programs within the EIT.

Additionally, EIT Culture and Creativity will host a networking lunch to bring together members of the startup world and interested participants.

The main partner of the event, OXO Holdings, will welcome attendees to an investment committee session where they can listen to live pitches and evaluations. Attendees will also have the chance to hear from Péter Oszkó, Milán Gauder, and Petya Balogh in an exclusive discussion.

At the STRT office, participants can learn about fundraising in a dedicated lecture and engage in one-on-one consultations with Petya Balogh and other experts from the company. Additional one-on-one opportunities will be offered by Blockchain Digital EDIH, MFOI, OPTEN, and Creative Europe. Individual meetings can be booked through the Startup Safari website under the "Programs" section.

Throughout the day, exciting lectures, discussions, and workshops will be hosted by Techweek, Innomaker Partners, and Continest, among others. Continest will tackle one of the most pressing topics in recent years: dual-use startups, exploring both military and everyday applications.

The central venue for Startup Safari remains Create26, but the nearly 150 programs will be spread across multiple locations over the two days. In collaboration with Tőkeportál, the first day's (April 8) programs will be held at Puzl CowOrKing, while the second day will take place across Create26, Moholy-Nagy University of Art and Design, Corvinus University, KAPTÁR, and STRT—all filled with insightful lectures, discussions, and key industry figures.

Attendees will have the opportunity to meet Gábor Orbán (Richter), Tamás Szauer (HVG), Veronika Pistyur (Bridge Budapest), Péter Csillag (Hungarian Business Angel Network), Petya Balogh (STRT), Dr. Péter Oszkó (OXO Holdings), Ilona Orbók (BDO Hungary), Milán Gauder (IzzyPay), and Albert Weittstein (Munch).

International speakers include Andrei Dudoiu (SeedBlink), Sean Harrity (SXSW), and Mrs. Birgit Reiter-Braunwieser (Austrian Business Agency - ABA).

The Austrian Business Agency will participate in the "Building Bridges between Innovation Ecosystems & Internationalization" panel, where Mrs. Birgit Reiter- Braunwieser will discuss opportunities in the global innovation ecosystem alongside Sean Harrity.
