Frequently Asked Questions
Who are we?
First and foremost, we help people. Startup Funding Event is an initiative we founded to give back to our community. Startup Funding Event is an event we created to bring inspiring impact startups and world-class founders together on one stage. It first started as one main event, and now we have about 3 events per year, our podcast Impact Talks, and much more!
Basically, we gather startups from around the globe and organize an event with judges and visitors to watch the startups pitch their business ideas! The winner of the event gets a ton of prizes to help them grow. Our main Innovation Funding Award has a prize value of over 42,000 euros! We’re growing bigger every year and are able to make visible, tangible changes in the lives of people around us.
How does the application process work?
The application process is really easy. You’ll do fine if you go into it with an open mind and willingness to help others. You’ll be asked to answer some questions, send in some pictures, send a video introduction, and have an interview call. We respect your time, so the application process shouldn’t take too much out of your day.
If you have questions, I would encourage you to just fill out the application form. It’s a simple form, it just asks for your name, phone number, and basic information. After you submit the form, you will receive an automatic email, please check your spam!
After you get the email, you can hit reply and ask any question you might have! You’re not locked into applying just by filling out the form on the website.
Long story short: if you’re interested at all in a collaboration, fill out an application.
You can send us an email if you want at hello@startupfundingevent.com, but filling out the form on the website is the quickest way to get your ambassador-related questions answered.
When is the (virtual) event?
Our event dates change every year! The event will likely always be on a different day. Due to current circumstances, we have postponed all of our physical events for an undefined time. However, we’re still continuing our virtual 100 cities event and our podcast, Impact Talks online. For dates, you can refer to our visitor page, by clicking here…
What exactly will I be doing?
We’re looking for ambassadors to collaborate with through sharing their ecosystem, knowledge, and network. In return, we make sure to guarantee you free tickets to give-away to your startups or network, as well as your team to guarantee front row access to any of our events.
Is being an ambassador the right thing for you?
I’ll tell you right now the most important thing is that you’re impact-oriented and have a positive personality. There is not a huge time commitment for this role, we’re looking for ambassadors to spread the message and not employees, after all!
We value honesty, loyalty, and curiosity. If you keep your promises, are honest when you can’t do something, and have the curiosity to keep learning, then you’ll fit right in!
What are the requirements to be an ambassador with us?
We invest a lot of time and energy into our ambassadors. Our requirements are simple, but firm. The reason we’ve been able to grow is due to our awesome ambassadors, and we need to make sure to keep it that way.
Here’s what you need to know:
- Have a positive attitude. This is an absolute must. We don’t do drama, backstabbing, or general bad team-working skills. We’re a positive group of hardworking people.
- Be willing to help others in our ecosystem (startups, investors, corporates, other ecosystems)
- Be willing to promote our event within your network
- Be available for an interview call (they’re really fun – we promise!)
What if I’m busy on the day of the event? Is it possible to help out but not make it to the event?
That’s totally okay. You can still go through the application process because we do need ambassadors leading up to the day of the event. You’re encouraged to try to make it to every event, however, if you need to miss one due to work or family then you can always come to the next one.
Are you sure I can schedule around my work?
Yes! We are very understanding when it comes to big projects, and/or important work events. In fact, nearly all of our virtual events are able to be reviewed later on through our events platform. That way you don’t miss any startup pitches or inspiration.
