What’s hot and beautiful and overflowing with startups? That’s right, València!

You already know, but on March 30 & 31 2023, TNW will be in València!

For 16 years, TNW Conference has been at the center of Amsterdam’s tech ecosystem. 

Now, it’s time for València. This vibrant city is Spain’s fastest growing entrepreneurial ecosystem — and has the most startups per capita of anywhere in the country. No wonder, The Fund, Sie Ventures, Activant Capital, Capital It and Accion will be looking for investment opportunities at The Next Web València conference.

Make sure you don't miss out!

A blast from the past

Transport. We all use it, but how often do we really think about it? Rate it? Decide whether it's good or bad?

Not enough. Not at all.

Which is why we made this video where we get Hardt Hyperloop to rate specific type of transport. You are very welcome to watch it right here.
