Participation Rules

The Global Startup Expo admission is reserved for all startups with one or more of the following pre-requisites:

1. Current commercialization or imminent launch of a product/service
2. Patent ownership of relevant value
3. Public recognition in a startup competition

The definition of a “startup” for admission purposes is: any company incorporated within four years OR will be incorporated in the next 6 months with a business plan aimed at achieving rapid growth and substantial revenue targets while seeking funds from external investors.

To participate to the selection process, startups must upload an approximately 3 minute video* on www.globalstartupexpo.com linked to Youtube or Vimeo. Additional information may be requested.

Once admitted, an email will be sent to the selected companies with details about the registration process along with a discount code for the Silver Booth at the special startup rate of 100€.

In addition, within the startup section of the site, visitors will be able to vote via Facebook Likes for their favourite organization. Based on the number of likes collected, 10 startups will be selected to present a pitch during a dedicated broadcast session of the Global Startup Expo 2015.

Admissions will be granted on a rolling basis once the public registration process begins. Admission will be determined exclusively by the organizer. The deadline for admissions is November 9, 2015.

*A video that presents the product/service with a commercial focus is advised for visibility and PR purposes.
