Entrepreneurs and investors rejoice & reunite!
Short pitch: Introducing the Romanian Startup Awards. Nominate hot startups, entrepreneurs and investors from Romania!
The Next Web is moving across Europe to meet in the local ecosystem some of the best start-ups, investors, entrepreneurs and members of the entrepreneurial community. On 5th of February, they are coming to Romania. Details will be provided really soon, thanks to the work of Geekcelerator. Of course, we are also chipping in, as well other important representatives of the Romanian entrepreneurial ecosystem. So for sure it will be a blast! 
So what’s exactly this StartUp Awards by The Next Web?
The Startup Awards are a public choice award, where the people decide on who will win the awards. It starts with nominating your favourite startups, four weeks before the event. Three weeks later, the professional TNW Jury, existing of Ziad M. Kane, CEO of TheNextWeb.com, TNW co-founder Patrick de Laive and editors Robin Wauters and Martin Bryant, selects max. 5 companies or people per category that will move on to the voting round. During the voting round, which lasts one week, anybody can vote for their favorites via our social voting platform.
The winners of the 7 categories are announced at the Startup Awards Ceremony on February 5th in Bucharest. Here the startup community will gather for drinks, chats and to celebrate the winners and nominees. In other words, an actual grand big party for the startup community!
