The Investors Day event, organized by UPTEC, gathered five investment funds: Armilar, Bynd, Bright Pixel, Indico and Semapa Next, and around 40 entrepreneurs looking for opportunities for fundraising. A debate – where investors talked about the top mistakes they see founders make early on and the books they advise early-stage founders to read –, a startup pitch session, and more than 25 one-on-one meetings were the high points of Investors Day.
