On 25-26 March 2025, Warsaw will again become the centre of the regional venture capital market as it gears up for the CEE VC Summit 2025.

Marking its fourth annual edition, over 250 VC fund managers will discuss the CEE’s presence on the global venture capital map, fostering collaboration and exchanging valuable insights.

Bringing the CEE VC Ecosystem Together

The two-day program is designed to spark meaningful discussions on emerging market trends, best practices in nurturing successful startups, and strategies for fueling innovation across the CEE region. VCs, LPs, and industry experts from the region and beyond will connect local and global VC ecosystems, sharing practical insights and fostering valuable knowledge exchange.

Attendees will also have the opportunity to engage with the official release of the Dealroom report on CEE. Additionally, there will be networking sessions designed to foster more personal interactions, including an exclusive investor dinner on Day 1.

“When I attend summits like this, I focus on two things: the content — are panels discussing relevant topics, and is there a sense of the current zeitgeist? And that was definitely covered, especially with the exclusive presence of VCs, which made for fantastic discussions. Secondly, I evaluate whether the event attracts high-quality individuals from the ecosystem. This event checked the box. I had the pleasure of forging numerous exciting new connections, and I’m sure we’ll continue a lot of conversations moving forward,” says James Black, Partner at IVP, highlighting the event’s singular influence in bringing together the region’s brightest minds and most influential figures.
