Pioneers. Pioneers Festival. 29-31 October 2012. 

This should be the October motto for all European startups and tech geeks out there. Pioneers Festival (Vienna) is one of THE best initiatives out there, dedicated to a constantly maturing and growing entrepreneurial and business community. The start-up competition is wonderful, with 33000$ cash prize. We are more than exited to have among the 50 pre-selected companies, our very own Tjobs.ro project, company which also got funded through VentureConnect in 2011.

What’s also great about Pioneers Festival is the great line-up of speakers present for the event, people which are meant to empower and mentor entrepreneurs and tech geeks alike. There are a billion other reasons for which we encourage you to attend Pioneers Festival, and hope to see so many of you there. For one, you have an inspiring conference line-up, a festival (just as cool as a rock-star concert), a dedicated program (two allocated tracks, “Trailsblazer” for inspiration and the “Startup Academy” with mentors digging deep into their expertise field during lessons), and an awesome start-up challenge (fingers crossed for Tjobs.ro). To that we add awesome parties, networking and an exclusive venue (did you google the place? It’s out of this world).

And since we’re advocating Pioneers Festival so sincerely, we’re also very happy to share a wonderful opportunity for those who bought a ticket or have not done so until now:
