It’s 2 years now since we’ve embarked together on this amazing journey with a clear purpose in mind: to build a stronger local tech community and help startups grow faster & better. It’s this common objective that guided every single step on our way and here we are, 2 years and 165+ events later, having brought 270+ speakers & mentors in front of our audience of more than 6500 people, with 80+ resident members that work on a daily basis from the co-working space at TechHub Bucharest.
