The Central European Startup Awards 2020

The Idea! Sleepless nights. Missed parties. Passion. Disappointment. We can do it! Triumph. Yes, we did it!

We, the entrepreneurs, are a strange breed of people. What differentiates us from the rest of the dreamers is that we make things happen. And when the others hard work to celebrate the Party-Fridays, we work hard even during weekends.

Together with the Bulgarian Startup Association (BESCO) we have decided to dedicate the Cohones Balls & Hearts edition to those who hit the challenging role of the entrepreneurship. 

 

The Central European Startup Awards 2020 will honor the 40 most successful startup finalists of Bulgaria. 10 of them will be announced THE BEST in their category. All the finalists will represent the Bulgarian startup community at the regional finals competing with the best startups from 9 CEE countries.

Here you will find out more about the people, the innovative ideas and the disruptive strategies behind the most successful entities of the Bulgarian startup community.

Don’t forget, each time when you scan the QR code of the B&H Start it UP Session IPA, you will be able to read an interview with one of the 40 finalists.
