Startup and Scaleup Founders Get-Together

On October 16th, we invite founders and C-level executives of innovative, scalable, and fast-growing startups and scale-ups from all over The Netherlands & beyond to join us for a casual get-together. Share your wins, challenges, setbacks.

If you ask us: it’s about time for a founders "borrel" again! With all the great startup hubs and communities in our region, there are so many connections just waiting to happen. Step away from the daily startup grind and connect with fellow startup and scale-up founders. Share your wins, challenges, setbacks, and frustrations. Only one rule: no sales allowed.

Who? Founders and C-level executives of innovative, scalable, and fast-growing startups and scale-ups.

Not from our region? No worries. This might be organized by hubs from Rotterdam, Delft and The Hague, but it’s for founders from... well.. across the universe, really.

Added bonus? A welcome drink is included in your entrance :)

The not-so-small print: we aim to create a space for peers in similar (let’s face it: challenging) positions to learn from each other. Not a startup founder (yet)? If you’re part of an agency, consultancy, service provider, IT firm, or a student exploring entrepreneurship, we’d love to welcome you at one of our other upcoming events. Keep an eye on our socials for more!

The Upstream x Hubs Founders Drinks are organized in partnership with:

​42Workspace, Buccaneer Delft, BlueCity, CIC Rotterdam, Erasmus Center for Entrepreneurship, Erasmus Enterprise, Microlab, Mr. Green Offices, Platform Zero, PortXL, Progress Bar, RDM, Rotterdam Square, Startdock, Titaan, Up!Rotterdam, Voor Goed, W70 and YES!Delft
