Over 50 of Europe’s potential unicorns will gather from the 22-23 March 2018 in Geneva and Lausanne, Switzerland. The Tech Tour Growth Summit (TTGS) is now widely recognised as the most prestigious business event in Europe for tech companies and their venture capital investors.  

 

220 attendees, including 50 CEOs from Europe’s super scale-ups, tier 1 European VCs, private equity and corporate investors, as well as tech industry experts will gather to thrash out the latest trends in sectors including Digital Tech, Mobility, A.I, Cybersecurity and Fintech.
