How you benefit from Get(ting) in the Ring

GLOBAL EXPOSURE FOR YOUR STARTUP

Applicants have the chance to test and prove their solutions with partners and be recognized as a leading startup on an international stage. Winning solutions will be communicated to our global network of SuperConnectors, investors, corporates and governments.

TANGIBLE SCALING OPPORTUNITES

The abundance of well-educated professionals and government incentives is a reason why Budapest is and still maintains itself as a thriving entrepreneurial ecosystem. The strategic location that the city has by the Danube river, which is one of the major European trade routes, means that the infrastructure is great and all forms of transport are easily available.

… AND A FREE RIDE TO MONTREAL

The winner of Get in the Ring Antwerp earns a fully-sponsored ticket to the Global Meetup 2021, where they will join the most innovative and brightest changemakers from our Global Network – unusual suspects converging at a truly global melting pot!

Get in the Ring Global Meetup

The Global Meetup is the final of the Global Startup Competition of Get in the Ring. In the past, the event has been hosted in cities such as Medellin to Berlin and from Cascais to Singapore. This year, Global Meetup will be in Montréal, Canada in February 2021.

“After winning the Global Meetup 2017, we got investors’ attention and gained the recognition we needed to close a $3m fund. Being part of the Get in the Ring community has been hugely beneficial for us.”
