Podim Conference 2026

Podim 2026 is a startup and tech conference in the Alps-Adriatic and CEE region, bringing together selected startups, active international investors, and key ecosystem builders from across Europe and beyond — in Maribor, Slovenia.
Built around curated 1:1 meetings, a Pitching Competition, Demo Day, and a dynamic Marketplace, Podim is designed to create real business opportunities — from fundraising conversations to strategic partnerships and market expansion. The program also features the Podim Main Stage and the Builders Stage, showcasing founders and operators behind globally scaling companies and sharing real, tactical insights.
This is not a massive expo. It’s a focused environment where first meetings turn into meaningful follow-ups.
