03 | Introduction to SaaStock

GLOBAL PITCH COMPETITION

The main prize will be €25,000 but you can also expect free annual subscriptions provided by our partners, PR opportunities, coaching sessions and most importantly, the recognition on the SaaStock main stage.

SaaStock are taking on the challenge to find and bet on the best SaaS Startup of 2018. They believe that there is so much SaaS talent in the making, it deserves a platform that fundamentally understands SaaS to recognise and celebrate it. No better place than our very own community of trail blazers. They have involved our partners in this hunt and together we will give the recognition and support to those that we believe are extremely promising.

SAASTOCK18STARTUP PROGRAM

The SaaStock18 Startup Program is built specifically for SaaS startups to get the best chance at high growth.

The program is divided into several parts — a Global Pitch competition seeking to find the best SaaS Startup of 2018, a day devoted to Startup Program participants, and a platform to showcase products and foster key 1-on-1 meetings with investors and other stakeholders.

THE STARTUP PROGRAMME DAY

The SaaStock18 Startup Program is built specifically for SaaS startups to get the best chance at high growth.

On October 15th, SaaStock will gather 200 attendees for a day of learning and networking, away from the crowds. They looked for the best partner to help us on the journey of building the best Startup Program and we chose Zendesk. No bigger supporter of startups and their ambitions. The day will take place at their brand new offices in Dublin.

"The Startup Program brings an exciting new facet to the SaaStock experience. With so many participants coming from abroad, I can't wait to watch it unfold!"

Alex TheumaFounder & CEO

"The Startup Program supports the grassroots of software innovation; building & expanding SaaStock's powerful global community. I'm truly excited to deliver it with all of our partners."
