“We exhibited and pitched for the first time”

— these two days exceeded all our expectations. We met many relevant potential customers, investors and industry professionals.

— Marc Randolph

"You are the heroes of tomorrow's Europe."

Europe cannot stand by and watch. We must act. Europe has many capabilities, we are not as weak as we pretend to be, we have very good industry, we are one of the biggest economies in the world, we have a lot of talent ... as here at the arena.

— Sana Marin
Former Prime Minister Finland
