“This is an extremely valuable event”

Techarena is an important event because being an Entrepreneur is a very  lonely pursuit and its great to bring together so many people who have  diverse backgrounds and experiences, working on different things but all share this single common thing of how can i do this better ... The  atmosphere at Techarena is exciting.

— Marc Randolph

“You are the heroes of tomorrow's Europe. We need your solutions, companies, ideas and innovations.”

Europe cannot stand by and watch. We must act. Europe has many capabilities, we are not as weak as we pretend to be, we have very good industry, we are one of the biggest economies in the world, we have a lot of talent ... as here at the arena.

— Sana Marin
Former Prime Minister Finland

It was particularly lovely to get to Techarena, it felt so welcoming. My advice to all here is, to screw it - just do it, carry on as you are and keep creating and keep making a difference."

— Richard Branson

“I would return to Techarena, because you get such a wide variety of opinion from some of the worlds most interesting people that come from the most eclectic backgrounds”

The conversations on stage but also around the arena are all so inspiring. The hunger for knowledge and the willingness to build together and connect are so strong Every conversation at events like this are seeds that you plant conversations that i had at events like this have resulted in partnerships and relationships even years along
