Choosing the right investor can make all the difference Founders must choose their investors wisely and deserve a broad range of financing options. To ensure a meaningful and diverse range of investors across Early Stage, Growth, and Private Equity, we apply the following criteria to investors, who want to get one of the 5 remaining tickets: - track record of institutional investemens in B2B software or AI companies - attendee is directly involved in investment decision into European B2B software & AI investments - max. 2 attendees per fund Investors can join all sessions, access to networking app & networking lounge & get a seat at our Speakers & Investor Dinner.

To succeed, B2B software founders need to get things right in 4 core areas: - Go To Market (GTM) - Tech & Product - Fundraising & Legal - People, Org & Personal Development So we designed a sub-community and a dedicated learning track around each of these for ARRtist Summit.
