What’s in it for you, partner?



Expand your (international) network

With 3500+ attendees, sTARTUp Day is the biggest business festival in the Baltic States, offering an excellent opportunity to connect with your next client, business partner, investor, or team member. The share of international attendees is 30% and rising each year.


Promote your brand

Promote your organization at the festival’s demo area or showcase your expertise in the specialized seminar program. Host a side event, brand a festival area, or give out a prize at the sTARTUp Pitching competition. The options are plenty – you choose!


Tap into innovation

sTARTUp Day is a fast track to the latest innovation, where you can meet the most innovative companies in the region and the next hot startups before everyone else does.


Gain visibility

Tell your story in the sTARTUp Day blog and social media channels before the event, and connect with media from Estonia and abroad during the event.


Inspire your team

We all need a little inspiration from time to time. Give your team a chance to break out of the routine, load up on fresh insights, and strengthen the team spirit.


Give back to the community

Make an invaluable contribution to the Estonian entrepreneurial ecosystem by supporting the next generation of founders and spreading the entrepreneurial mindset.


Make Tartu a startup capital

Join our efforts to put Tartu on the world map as a hub of innovation. In 2024, sTARTUp Day overlapped with the European Capital of Culture Tartu 2024 opening celebrations.


We don’t believe in one-size-fits-all solutions and tailor the partnership to your needs. If you’d like to discuss partnership opportunities, drop a line to the Head Organizer, Jana Saastamoinen: jana.saastamoinen@startupday.ee
