New Growth: Founders' Festival Bits&Pretzels 2023

Participants can look forward to exciting keynotes, workshops, panels and pitches from renowned speakers and experts from the startup scene. Michelle Obama, former First Lady of the USA, is the highlight of the announced speakers. She will share from her career and wants to encourage the audience to embrace their unique strengths and overcome self-doubt. Other confirmed speakers include Scott Galloway, Professor of Marketing and Founder of Prof G Media, Nathan Blecharczyk, Co-Founder and CSO of Airbnb, and Alexander Rinke, Co-Founder and Co-CEO of Celonis, the flagship startup from the Munich Eco-System.

There is also the opportunity to participate in more than 15,000 founder-investor meetings, which are organized according to Bits&Pretzels' matching algorithm. After last year's event, €3.4 billion in investments were made, according to organizers. The highlight of the festival is the traditional networking day at Oktoberfest, where participants can sit in small groups with a table captain of their choice at one of the famous beer tables. There they can exchange ideas in a relaxed atmosphere, receive feedback and find potential partners.
