BuddyFest

BuddyFest – Ax.c's Icebreaker Breakfast Before the Biggest Startup Gathering of the Year! 🚀

July 8 | 8:30–9:30 AM

Large events can be overwhelming. Hundreds of attendees, dozens of sessions, countless new people to meet... and sometimes the feeling that you have to navigate it all on your own.

BuddyFest is here to change that.

Before heading to Startupfest, join us at Ax.c for a casual breakfast where you'll be randomly matched with one or a few fellow attendees. The goal? Make your first connections, break the ice, and arrive at the festival with familiar faces to connect with throughout the day.

Whether you're new to the ecosystem, a little more introverted, or simply looking to share the experience with someone, BuddyFest helps you start the day feeling more comfortable, confident, and connected.

After breakfast, we'll walk together to the Grand Quai and head into Startupfest as a group! ☕🚶‍♀️🚀
