the fOunding idea

Superconnectors was born from a simple realization: while many startup events focus on raising money, few prioritize helping founders find the right people.
We first launched during Rotterdam’s startup festival, Upstream, creating a space where meaningful connections could take center stage.
The concept quickly gained traction and went from being a once-a-year fun side event to one being organised 20+ times a year at the world's biggest tech fairs, such as CES, Slush and Web Summit, having our own annual Superconnectors Summit and exclusive retreats for our most valued members.

impact

At Superconnectors, impact starts with a single connection. We bring founders and Superconnectors together to spark partnerships, solve challenges, and unlock game-changing opportunities, creating moments that can transform a startup’s journey in an instant.
