Learn from founders who went global from the SEE region and thought leaders sharing their truly honest stories on how to think big, grow your business and fight challenges on the way to becoming a market leader.
This one-day CEED Experience conference is not just about listening, it’s about sharing.


FROM START TO BREAKTROUGH
What does it take to breakthrough and reach product-market fit through winning and failing growth strategies?

FAIL AND LEARN
In every remarkable success story there are countless crashes and burns. Truly honest founders’ talks about what they learned from fails.

SEE THE FUTURE OF YOUR SCALING
Hear from founders who have built an international team and culture, navigated the transition from start-up, scaled up and/or exited.

International conference CEED Founders Talk: Start. Fail. Scale brought together over 300 entrepreneurs and founders from Slovenia, Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Serbia, Macedonia, USA, Germany and France. The purpose of the conference as well as CEED Slovenia’s mission is to openly share experiences and challenges because talking about problems in running a business in Slovenia is still considered a taboo. Not only guests but also conference participants shared their truly honest stories and experiences for growth and overcoming challenges in the entrepreneurial path.
OUR THOUGHT-PROVOKING SPEAKERS

This conference is only a stepping stone in our mission!
Throughout the year, we host and learn from successful global founders and thought leaders from around the world who bring the know-how that is most sought after here in our region.
In addition to some speakers coming from Europe and USA to this conference, we would like to give you the opportunity to learn from the founders who have built global companies in and from the region, because they are the trendsetters and thought-leaders to also learn from.
Slovenian global companies are participating in this mission within the Global Learning Initiative, which is powered by CEED Slovenia.

Conference is organized in partnership with WorldChicago and Catalyze network of founders and emerging leaders from the SEE region, who are expanding their know-how and mind-set through Professional Fellowship Program in Chicago.
