Valencia Digital Summit (VDS) brings together more than 12,000 founders, startups, investors, corporates and tech leaders from over 120 countries in Valencia for two days of connections, ideas and opportunities shaping the future of technology.

This year, e-Residency, Work in Estonia and Business Tallinn are joining forces to bring a taste of Estonia’s digital and startup ecosystem to VDS.

We’re starting early – join us on 20 October

VDS officially takes place on 21–22 October, but e-Residency will already be in Valencia a day earlier. Join us on Tuesday, 20 October for two pre-VDS gatherings:

18:00–19:30 | Founders Gathering Valencia by Fuckup Nights
An intimate gathering for founders to talk openly about the realities of building a business, exchange experiences and tackle real business challenges together. Application required and places are limited.

19:30 onwards | Start Here, Build Anywhere: e-Residency meetup in Valencia
Meet e-residents, founders, entrepreneurs, investors and key players from the Estonian ecosystem for an informal evening of networking and conversation at Veles e Vents.

Meet Team Estonia

Find us at stand 19 to meet the team and discover how Estonia can support your international business journey. Learn how e-Residency can help you start and run an EU-based company 100% online, and connect with experts from across Estonia’s business and talent ecosystem.

We’re also bringing 12 startups from Tallinn to Valencia. Meet them in the delegation area at i9 and i11 and discover some of the companies emerging from Estonia’s startup ecosystem.

There’s even more happening at pavilion P3. Across both days, we’ll be hosting a programme of practical sessions, founder activities and networking opportunities.
