About this evening
An invitation-only evening for founders and investors at Schalast's offices on Mendelssohnstrasse in Frankfurt. Around 60 guests, doors at 17:00 and close around 21:00, held in English under the theme "Capital, Regulation & Scale". The centrepiece is a founder fireside chat: a candid conversation about what it actually takes to raise and scale in Europe, what regulation costs in practice, and what the founder would do differently. An investor panel spanning private equity, venture capital and the wider FinTech ecosystem picks up those threads afterwards, followed by networking over drinks.
