The European startup ecosystem soared to new heights today with the launch of the Innovation Radar Bridge initiative and StepUp Startups! In a panel with Ana Barjasic from European Innovation Council and SMEs Executive Agency (EISMEA), Jekaterina Novikova from DG Research & Innovation of European Commission and MEP Dragos Tudorache, ESNA’s Executive Director, Arthur Jordão, explained the importance of creating a viable environment for startups, securing that national policymaking in Europe addresses the specific needs of these businesses. But our contribution went well beyond the focus on policymaking as our Head of Marketing and Communications, Sarah Luvisotto, moderated 2 insightful panels on the untapped investment potential of EU-funded innovators - featuring ESNA’s Presidency Board member Anne Lidgard - and on the opportunities brought about by the #DigitalMarketsAct for #startups. Thanks to EU-Startups, Dealroom.co Dealflow.eu Barrabés.biz DEEP Ecosystems SERN - Startup Europe Regions Network and Leibniz IRS for setting up a vital discussion on how these 2 innovative projects will take Europe a step further in actively supporting the startup ecosystem to thrive. #innovation #policy #ESNA
