Zagreb Slush’D 2025 – Where Startup Stories Find Their Audience

Dedicated to entrepreneurship and innovation, Zagreb Slush’D 2025 will take place on September 24–25 at the Zagreb School of Economics and Management (ZŠEM).

As co-organizers together with HUKI, we’re proud to bring this unique experience to the community.

Inspired by the globally renowned Slush Helsinki, which gathers tens of thousands of participants each year, Zagreb Slush’D brings the same energy and spirit of innovation — but in a more intimate, regional context. It’s all about real stories, practical insights, and meaningful connections.

What to Expect?

• World-class speakers – More than 30 founders, investors, and leaders will share their journeys, from first attempts and failures to global success stories.
• Intense networking – Hundreds of participants are expected, including startups, investors, students, corporate representatives, and enthusiasts. The event offers countless opportunities for conversations, collaborations, and new business stories.
• Startup competition – The best teams will pitch their projects in front of a jury of experts and investors. The winner will receive a trip to Slush Helsinki 2025, including a ticket, travel expenses, and accommodation — a true gateway to the global stage.
• Inspiring atmosphere – Expect authentic conversations, hands-on experiences, and practical advice that can truly change the course of a business.

Why Zagreb Slush’D?

What makes this event special is the blend of inspiration and practicality. While many events stay on a theoretical level, Zagreb Slush’D brings together people who have walked the path from idea to successful company — and are ready to share it all, from highs to lows.

This makes it a place where entrepreneurs gain authentic insight into the realities of business, and the audience leaves with practical knowledge and valuable contacts.

Who Should Join?

• Entrepreneurs & startups – to showcase their work, gain feedback, and find investors or partners.
• Investors – to discover some of the most exciting projects and ideas in the region.
• Students & enthusiasts – to step into the world of entrepreneurship and innovation while building their own network.
• Corporates & institutions – to learn how to collaborate with startups and stay ahead of new trends.

More Than Just a Conference

Zagreb Slush’D is a two-day festival of innovation, entrepreneurship, and fresh ideas. The energy of participants, speakers, and startup teams fills every corner, while inspiration and new connections often grow into real projects and long-term collaborations.
