Founders re/Connected: The Start of 2026
Dates
Tue 27 Jan17:30 - 21:30
Location
Capital C, Weesperplein 4B, 1018 XA Amsterdam
Before calendars fill up, strategy decks multiply, and someone casually drops “we need ISO 27001” into a Monday meeting, let’s take a moment to zoom out and celebrate our founders together 🥂
DutchBasecamp, Plug and Play, and uGlobally are joining forces to bring founders, investors, and ecosystem players into one room to share perspectives, set intentions for the year ahead, and to remind ourselves why we build in the first place.
What we have planned:
Plug and Play on what 2026 might bring across the investment landscape
DutchBasecamp on internationalisation trends - and how to make sense of 27 markets vs one EU, 2026 edition
We’re joined by a visiting Croatian delegation, Digital Dalmatia*, adding fresh perspectives (and even more reason to stay for the networking)
Selected founder pitches, bringing different industries, stages, and perspectives (AI optional 😉)
And, as usual: plenty of serendipity, unexpected connections, and that familiar feeling of
“I didn’t know I needed to meet this person but somehow, this just changed something.”
🚀 Founders who want to apply to pitch can submit pitch decks to us through this form.
*Digital Dalmatia is the regional tech and startup hub of Split-Dalmatia County, driving the Dalmatian innovation ecosystem through dedicated programs like the GROWit startup accelerator and a vibrant community Tech Hub in Split.
