WHAT IS SOUTH SUMMIT?

Steve Wozniak, Cofounder of Apple at South Summit 2015

The South Summit is the leading startup conference in the South of Europe. A unique platform that brings together the most promising startups from Europe, the Mediterranean and Latin-America, with top-tier international investors and some of the leading corporations that are looking for innovation through startups.

WHERE DO WE COME FROM? Talent shines in difficult times

Spain Startup was born in 2012, in the midst of a crisis and in crisis we saw opportunities. We believed that entrepreneurs would be the driving force of the economy and we created a platform to showcase to the world the best startups from the South. At South Summit 2015 entrepreneurship and innovation have taken the spotlight and gained momentum. No matter what the circumstances, talent will always shine through. The number of participants has grown, the quality of startups has improved, and more deals are being done. Creativity, passion and courage are the values that drive our growth: .
