ReflectX 2024: Where Ambitious Startups Meet Opportunity
The highly anticipated second edition of the ReflectX startup programme is now accepting applications. This unique platform is designed to propel Seed to Series-A startups to new heights by providing unparalleled access, connections, and visibility within the industry.
Dusan Duffek, co-founder of Reflect, expressed enthusiasm about the programme’s return, “After a successful 2023 debut, the ReflectX startup programme will be back, broadening its scope and raising the bar for participating startups.” ReflectX is not just an event; it’s a gateway to exclusive investor matchmaking with top-tier investors such as Hustle Fund, Venture Souq, LAUNCHub, and many others.
Participants will enjoy a plethora of benefits, including interactions with corporate executives and educational workshops. They also receive significant discounts on exhibition spaces and the chance to present their ideas at the ReflectX Pitch Competition.
The upcoming cohort will convene at the Reflect Festival in Limassol, Cyprus, on May 30-31. Startups have until April 30th to submit their applications and embark on a journey that could redefine their future.
