We are thrilled to invite you to the first Maria 01 Community Breakfast of 2023

Welcome to enjoy breakfast together with the Maria 01 Community and like-minded startups, while getting insightful tips on how to approach raising your pre-seed and seed round.

For our first Community Breakfast, we have the honour of inviting our Investor Network Member Petteri Koponen from Lifeline Ventures up on stage. Petteri has years of experience when it comes to working with startups looking to raise their first rounds and will share his learnings and best practices. We will kick off the morning with breakfast and a keynote by Petteri, followed by a Q&A session where you’ll have the unique opportunity to ask all your burning questions to one of our leading investor members.

Expect to learn:

  • How to approach your next investor
