For a few days, Wrocław became the Polish center of startup life. All thanks to Evolutions: Meetup & Showcase – an event for young innovators who came not only from all over Poland but also from many other countries. They took part not only in the conference and pitching competition but also in expert-led workshops that provided valuable business knowledge.
Evolutions: Meetup & Showcase is a unique event combining experience sharing, meetings with experts, a startup competition, and high-energy networking. It also includes workshops for young entrepreneurs, which took place at the Wrocław campus of Coventry University. The sessions were led by experts from various fields, including specialists in social media, law, finance, and market analysis.

Knowledge not just for the advanced

This intensive workshop session was divided into different levels of advancement. The sessions covered marketing, business models, and cooperation with VCs. Participants also had access to free tax and legal consultations. Among the substantive and inspiring topics were: “The Investment Agreement – How Not to Make the Biggest Mistake of Your Life” and “Pitch Perfect: Master Your Unique Pitch.” There were also discussions about building pricing models and the economic and legal aspects influencing business valuation. Participants learned more about performance management, the operations of VC funds, personal branding on social media, and had a chance to take part in a practical product workshop for startups.
