Startup Events GmbH is the company behind the Bits & Pretzels events. In 2014, Bits & Pretzels started as a small founders' breakfast with only 80 participants.

Today, 5,000 founders, the world's leading companies, and the most inspiring speakers join our annual festival and Bits & Pretzels HealthTech is on the way to become Europe's most important event for healthtech innovation. We all share our belief that entrepreneurship and innovation can drive positive change in Europe and all over the world.

This extraordinary development was only made possible by a hard-working team. With the belief in our success, we convinced personalities like Michelle and Barack Obama, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Jessica Alba, Michel J. Fox, Ariana Huffington, and many more to speak at our events.

With us, you'll have the opportunity to make an impact, learn from the best, and be a part of an innovative and supportive community. And the best part? You can do this from the comfort of your home or join us in the bustling city of Munich. We offer the flexibility of a fully remote role, too!
