About us
📍 July 9-11, 2025 | Montréal, Québec Startupfest is a global gathering of the world's best entrepreneurs, founders, investors and mentors. It features world-class content, from back-of-napkin ideas to champagne-popping exits, across three days of keynotes, interactive how-to sessions, thought-provoking predictions, and a healthy dose of irreverence. Startupfest is produced by Embrase, the company behind FWD50, Scaletech, Resolve, Pandemonio and the Elevator World Tour—which has earned a reputation for unexpected approaches to compelling content. From a pitch contest in the Eiffel Tower, to a panel of grandmother judges, to unique interactive formats, to online spatial networking, to gatherings on tropical beaches, we reimagine what’s possible.
