100+ STARTUPS FROM 18 COUNTRIES ARE SELECTED FOR EMERGE CHALLENGE

Drumroll and applause as we are announcing all the EMERGE CHALLENGE 2019 participants.

We've gone through over 250 applications, and together with our Board of Experts, selected 103 startups from 18 countries who will pitch in EMERGE CHALLENGE Quarter-Finals on 3 June in Minsk, Belarus.

During the Founders Day (3 June), startups will get on stage in front of the jury panels so that by the end of the day, we will know 50 Semi-Finalists. Next day, these 50 selected teams will pitch their ideas on the X Stage, in front of 2000+ international audience.

Based on the domains, the startups will be divided into several batches. Jury panels will assess the teams against the list of criteria: Idea, Team, Business Model, Unique Sales Proposition, and Global Growth Potential.

On 5 June 10 finalists, selected by the jury panel, will compete on the main EMERGE stage and the winner will get €10,000 prize. Fingers crossed for these amazing teams!
