A few months ago, I spent over an hour chatting (and immensely digressing into multiple open-ended conversations about startups) with the gentleman behind the UPRISE startup festivals in Amsterdam.

Today, we get to share that every member of any included collective can attend the UPRIS3 Festival with an amazing 30% saving!

The first UPRISE event opened in March 2015 to an audience of 4,000 attendees and 77 startups. On April 21st and 22nd their third edition (aptly named UPRIS3) will run in Amsterdam for 150 Companies and promises to attract near 3,500 passionate attendees per day.

UPRIS3 will offer a vibrant startup marketplace alongside free-to-attend workshops and panels running throughout both days. They enjoy the acclaim for setting an alternative to the large conferences across Europe with tickets starting at just €35 per day (or € 57 for both days) before your included discount.

Avoiding the talk format the organisers focus on our interactive panels, engaging workshops, pitch battles and games while making sure the environment is relaxed and sets a creative vibe for all attendees.

Oh, and in October will have their first festival in Dublin too! The festival’s partners include Facebook, Microsoft, Paypal, Rabobank, Booking.com, Uber and Startup Amsterdam to name a few.
