Katapult Demo Day

Meet 10 of the Balkans' best startups, all post-revenue and expanding in the US. Katapult is the Balkans' leading accelerator, based in Serbia and open to founders from around the world. Each year, an independent investment committee picks just 15–20 startups for the program consisting of three months of intensive mentoring, and a shot at up to $300K in non-dilutive funding, matched 1:1 with equity investment. Katapult is backed by the World Bank, the European Union and the Government of Serbia. The Financial Times named it a Top 50 Startup Hub in Europe, ranking it #11 for mentoring in 2026. It's the only hub in the top 180 from outside the EU, UK or Switzerland. Free to attend. Registration requires approval. Light refreshments will be served.
