Startups change the world – and Latitude59 is built to accelerate that change. We’re obsessed with helping founders turn breakthrough ideas into reality, whether you’re tackling climate tech, impact tech, fintech, or the next big thing. When startups succeed, humanity wins. That’s why everything we do centers around giving you the stage, the connections, and the momentum you need.
Get in front of 700+ investors actively hunting deals, demo your product to impact-makers from 70+ countries, and pitch on the same stage where €3,000,000 has been distributed among the L59 Pitch Competition finalists in the last three years. This isn’t just networking – it’s your launchpad.
