EVENTS

Where Europe's AI & technology community comes together

From intimate dinners with hand-picked peers to flagship gatherings with 500+ leaders, every event is designed to deepen relationships and accelerate your momentum.

Silicon Valley Insider Week

Registrations are closed
For Europe’s most ambitious scaling founders (€10–100m+ ARR), this is an invitation-only immersion into the rooms where the internet era was built, and where the AI era is now being shaped.​ Over four intensive days in San Francisco and Silicon Valley, just 15–20 founders and CEOs will go behind closed doors with the people who wrote the playbook for modern technology, and are now rewriting it for AI.​

The programme carries a fee, places are strictly limited, and every session is engineered for leaders who are ready to move from “strong European player” to “global category winner” in the next 3–5 years
