words from our cOmmunity

Alexander BroekmanMarjolein Boer

‘‘Networking on steroids! Our promise to founders is ‘Make the network work for you’. And that’s exactly what Superconnectors delivered.

Superconnectors was one of the best events we had during Upstream 2021.’’

Private Lead at Up!Rotterdam

"The energy was fun. It was not your typical start-up event. The tension was not related to the founders but more the competition between the Superconnectors.

It was really light-hearted, fun and laughed a lot. Enjoyed it!"

Robin Laird
CEO, Founder Health Curious

"The fact that you brought a group of experienced people with a huge network together provided SO much value. The format makes it great to get the most out of it from the startup's perspective. It is like instead of one rocketship, you get the potential of 10 rocket ships glued together, to get you to the moon!"
