Description

Our ambitions are high: This event will be the inspirational event of the year in the Danish Startup scene. The theme: Go global.. now!


Let's see what we've got:


Mikkel SvaneAs our headline guest Mikkel Svane (@mikkelsvane) joins us for an informal fireside chat. In case you don't know Mikkel is making waves in Silicon Valley as co-founder and CEO of Zendesk. They are riding high on the excitement around Enterprise 2.0 and have raised a staggering $85.000.000 from the A-list of Silicon Valley venture capitalists. Mikkel will share his experience from what has been one hell of a ride these past years.


The SCALEit program has already given 50+ exciting Danish startups a life altering introduction to the Silicon Valley ecosystem. Søren Therkelsen (@sorenrt), co-founder of SCALEit and long time pirate is now recruiting the best Danish entrepreneurs for SCALEit Ignite, a one week bootcamp taking place in Silicon Valley from December 2-6, 2013.


Henrik Bennetsen (@henrikbennetsen) is director of Health IT at Innovation Center Denmark Silicon Valley and part of the SCALEit team. Grounded in his own experience with founding startups in both Denmark and San Francisco Henrik will give a talk entitled Why Silicon Valley works for entrepreneurs.


Last but by no means least: 3 brave startups who just won a tough pitch-training day (hint: This could be you!) will give you their freshly honed startup pitch to thunderous applause!!
