From the beginning, Startup Guide’s mission has been to, guide, empower and inspire people to start their own businesses anywhere. Connect by Startup Guide was created to share the knowledge and experience we gained  after publishing our guidebooks in over 30 different cities around the world. Based on this,  Connect aims to provide a strategic partnership promoting cities’ economic and social development through innovative startup ecosystems.

We helped them explore the startup world and promote social and economic development.

“Connect by Startup Guide has given us a unique opportunity to explore cutting-edge technologies and engage with innovative startups who have the potential to transform the fashion retail industry. For five days, we toured Scandinavia's most renowned innovation hubs, met with startups and participated in workshops. We were so inspired by the learning journey that we decided to launch our own entrepreneurship lab.”

“After seeking potential partnerships in Europe, we found Connect by Startup Guide, and we must say we’re happy we did! They helped us find pioneering European startups in IoT, Cleantech and Smart Grid to tackle several innovation challenges that we organized. They did great work for us, and the return on investment was worth it!”
