THE WHY
BY tech entrepreneurs & investors. FOR tech entrepreneurs & investors.
Tech community
The event organizer(s) have been active since 2016 in stimulating and supporting the entrepreneurial-minded tech community in Geneva, through various events including startup weekends / hackathons, meetups and fireside chats.
It's time to get together again, share projects, opportunities, and catch-up on latest trends impacting tech startups and investing!
Techbikers
Techbikers inspired the TechBoat, where tech founders and investors gather to cycle between european cities and raise funds for charities. Profits from TechBoat events are used to support children's education through Room to Read by donating to TechBikers fundraising campaigns.
Room to Read
Room to Read envisions a world in which all children can pursue a quality education that enables them to reach their full potential and contribute to their communities and the world, by focusing on literacy and gender equality in education.
Just Giving
You can also directly support this cause through a donation on Just Giving to Jérôme next TechBikers challenge (here's the previous campaign page).
