The second Google for Entrepreneurs meeting will be held in Porto on 17 January, at Critical Software's facilities.
The Startup Grind Porto invites Humberto Pereira and Torben Schulz, dashdash founders, the company that enables users to create apps relying solely on their knowledge on Excel.
dashdash concluded an investment round of about eight million euros, led by the American trust Accel, which has already invested in companies such as Facebook and Spotify.
Startup Grind, which was founded in Silicon Valley, is the largest independent startup community, taking on the role of educating, inspiring, and connecting more than one million five hundred thousand entrepreneurs in over 125 countries, by means of developing networking events and partnerships with organizations like Google for Startups.
The operationalisation of Startup Grind's goals within the larger community of entrepreneurs is carried out through monthly events featuring successful local founders, innovators, educators and investors, who partake experiences, and best practices when it comes to establishing winning companies.
Eduardo Ribeiro, CDO at Critical Software, and Rui Barreira, Enterprise Agile Coach at Critical Software are the directors of Startup Grind Porto. The first event was held last November at UPTEC - Science and Technology Park of the University of Porto.
After a very successful first edition, the Startup Grind Porto team organises an event for 17 January, with the participation of Humberto Pereira and Torben Schulz.
Tickets for the event are already available, namely early birds and regular tickets.
