Our Partners

Brilliant minds in the field of AI, like scientists, researchers and entrepreneurs, will spend the day discussing the stakes of Deep Learning and Machine Intelligence. 3 topics will guide panel debates, keynotes and open discussions throughout the day: State of Research (Breakthroughs, debates, future of development), Ethics, Risks & Opportunities (Civilizational impact, social responsibility and the value of AI) and Business Applications (how AI changes the way we work, consume & develop products). Participants will get a holistic picture of what is and will be possible from a technological perspective. Furthermore, they can address questions on how AI will impact our society and will understand the consequences self-learning algorithms will have for our professional and private life. Speakers include Ulrich Schmitz, managing director of Axel Springer Digital Ventures, and Scientist Prof. Christoph von der Malsburg.

Ever wonder what it’s like to negotiate a VC round?

Well, what goes on behind the scenes is a lot more complex than you may think! An often very long and binding document called a ‘Term Sheet’ is drawn out in order to outline the terms of the relationship between Startup and Investor. After all, this IS a business transaction where both parties are looking for the best deal possible.

Startupbootcamp is offering you a chance to see behind the scenes, understand these rules of engagement, and learn the tactics at our LIVE Term Sheet Showdown on July 5th at The Place Berlin. Just don’t forget to sign up!

Who’s Involved?

Join an audience of entrepreneurs, angels, and VC’s in witnessing this showdown. Taking in every twist and turn as we present a live term sheet negotiation.

We have Venture Capitalist Olaf Jacobi of Capnamic Ventures sitting on one side of the table, faced by local startup founder Christoph Gerber (CEO of Talon.One / Founder of Lieferando.de) and experienced startup lawyer Jens Roehrborn sitting on his side. We have created a prime battlefield environment in which these parties can negotiate the term sheet that lies before them. And you’ll also receive a copy when you arrive to take notes and follow along!

You may have already heard of us: after 2 years of hard work on StartupCVs and SalesCVs, we used our expertise in recruiting to consolidate best practices and launch our new brand, Taledo, in March 2017.

The name Taledo came from a combination of the words Talent and Doing–because the best people are not only talented, but also great at getting things done. And with our profound expertise in talent and people management, we know exactly how to identify these talented doers. We’re building Taledo to ensure that we can connect the right candidates with the right companies, at the right time.
