As we welcomed the new roaring 2020s, the European startup sector can feel proud of another record for investment in 2019, as founders all over the continent start to challenge the US and China for building innovative, scalable businesses.

Is 2020 going to be the year when European startups start to poach talent from the US? Is it going to be the year when American money pours into Europe?

The cost of setting up a new business has never been so low, and entrepreneurship seems to be the métier of the future.

There might be several reasons behind startup failures such as mismanagement funds, weak team, poor leadership, legal challenges or having too much competition...

But one thing these startups often ignore is the analysis of future trends while starting a business.

To build a sustainable and profitable business for the future, you will have to explore the current trends and keep an outlook for future businesses of the next 10-15 years.

So if you want to found a startup and are searching for innovative tech areas and gaps for niches in Industry 4.0 you might want to come and hear what these tech savvy serial entrepreneurs have to say.
