Full Moon by Wolves Summit: A networking party connecting the most influential CEE ecosystem players

Meet Vienna UP

This joint event will help you to find your people in Vienna. ViennaUP is a decentralized community-driven festival in the heart of Europe, shining a light on what the future of technology holds. Together with their contributing partners, they are building a unique interconnected experience for startups, investors, tech enthusiasts, creatives, and visionaries.

What to expect

Full Moon by Wolves Summit is a networking party connecting the most influential CEE ecosystem players with investors, tech-enthusiasts and policy-makers from Vienna to facilitate mutual connection and tech growth. The event will be opened with an agenda segment covering the most important issues of international collaboration in the tech industry, followed by an afterparty with music, finger foods, drinks and countless networking opportunities. Entry to the Full Moon afterparty for 2023 Wolves Summit ticket holders is free of charge – check your e-mail for instructions on how to register.

Networking

We believe that networking happens mutually in a structured and more random way. Full Moon Networking Party by Wolves Summit lets the attendees combine those two routes of gaining new contacts and forming long-lasting connections in an informal setting. This is a great opportunity to get acquainted with the Austrian ecosystem players in the industry. Meet people both from Vienna Up and Wolves Summit. 

The Venue

The location is a secret and will be disclosed in the confirmation email! The event will happen in the artistic heart of Vienna.
The time: starting from 3 PM.
