Secpho is official Startup Europe Ambassador, recognized by the European Commission.
Throughout the years, Startup Europe (SE) has been a collective effort of hundreds of stakeholders, movers and doers in tech and startup field. The impact of this initiative could not have been possible without the immense support provided by this community. The community that is currently taking part in the growth of Startup Europe as a bottom-up movement have been invited to be Startup Europe Ambassadors.
Startup Europe Ambassadors represent a group of key influencers in the European startup ecosystems who are actively supporting our activities or who will be joining our adventure in the future.
The ambassadors are the organisations who have been selected through the evaluation of proposals of European Commission’s Horizon 2020 ICT 32 call, as well as partners of Pilot project: WeP-UP and OpenMaker. For a full list of the representative organizations please click here.
As Startup Europe Ambassador, secpho will actively contribute to the visibility of Startup Europe by acting as a key information point in Southern Europe about Startup Europe activities or by connecting the Startup Europe team with relevant stakeholders from our local startup field. It is our goal to gather feedback and to provide innovative insight to the European Commission’s Startup Europe team with the objective of improving the activities of this initiative.
