Last week, we had the pleasure of hosting David Sidler through the support of Swiss EP - Swiss Entrepreneurship Program, who spent two days deeply immersed in our startup ecosystem.
Together with Inovacioni inkubator - Agrino at the Poljoprivredni fakultet Univerziteta u Beogradu / University of Belgrade Faculty of Agriculture, we engaged with students on what it really means to pursue the ๐๐ path โ from investor expectations and fundraising readiness to what determines whether a deal gets a "yes" or a "not yet."
For students in Serbia, who today face a complex and uncertain environment, this kind of exposure to investors and real startup challenges is a crucial opportunity to learn how to build sustainable, globally relevant products.
A big thank you to InterVenture for opening their doors and enabling David to deliver a highly interactive workshop for founders. The session explored key specifics of Venture Capital investing, including:
๐น what early-stage VCs actually look for,
๐น how founders can de-risk their story,
๐น why clarity beats hype,
๐น and how startups can position themselves for long-term investor interest.
We also held dedicated office hours with a group of promising startups:
Quantropy AI ยท The Online Networking ยท Vavilon ยท Smart Part ยท Tap Tap ยท TriCell. Each of them walked away with sharp, actionable guidance โ and as one founder put it, โa necessary wake-up call.โ
A big thank you to everyone who joined us, asked the tough questions, and contributed to growing the next generation of investable startups in our ecosystem.

Ovih dana imali smo zadovoljstvo da ugostimo David Sidler kroz podrลกku Swiss EP - Swiss Entrepreneurship Program, koji je proveo dva dana u intenzivnoj interakciji sa naลกim startap ekosistemom.
U saradnji sa Inovacioni inkubator - Agrino na Poljoprivredni fakultet Univerziteta u Beogradu / University of Belgrade Faculty of Agriculture razgovarali smo sa studentima o tome ลกta ih zaista ฤeka ukoliko krenu putem VC investicija โ od oฤekivanja investitora i spremnosti za fundraising, do toga ลกta pravi razliku izmeฤu โdaโ i โjoลก uvek ne.โ
Za studente u Srbiji, koji se danas nalaze u sloลพenom i neizvesnom okruลพenju, ovakav kontakt sa investitorima i realnim startup izazovima predstavlja kljuฤnu priliku da nauฤe kako da grade odrลพive, globalno relevantne proizvode.
Veliko hvala kompaniji InterVenture koja je otvorila svoja vrata i omoguฤila Davidu da odrลพi izuzetno interaktivnu radionicu za startape.
Odrลพali smo i posebne office hours sa grupom perspektivnih startapa.
Svi su dobili vrlo direktne i primenljive smernice โ a neki, kako je jedan osnivaฤ rekao, i โneophodno otreลพnjenjeโ.
Hvala svima koji su bili deo programa, postavljali teลกka pitanja i zajedno sa nama gradili sledeฤu generaciju investiciono spremnih startapa u Srbiji.
