Meet Peter's Friends

​AN OFFICIAL MEOUT SUMMIT SIDE EVENT.

​Hi, I'm Peter Kovács. I co-founded the Global Startup Awards and IseeQ, and today I run NetworkSmith.io. In the startup world most people know me as the networking guy, connecting people across countries, regions and continents.

​Several international speakers are joining MeOut Summit 2026 at my invitation. On the second evening of the summit I am bringing most of them together for a relaxed evening with fellow summit attendees and the winners and partners of Edition 11 of the Central European Startup Awards, announced earlier that day at the awards' Grand Finale on the summit stage.

​No stage, no pitches. Just drinks, good conversations and networking. Our host is KLUSTER, a top coworking hub in the heart of Budapest.

​Places are limited, so every registration is approved personally. MeOut Summit attendees get priority.

​Follow me on LinkedIn, and NetworkSmith.io on YouTube and LinkedIn to see what's next.

​This is an official side event of MeOut Summit 2026, a two-day Central and Eastern European startup and innovation conference co-organised by MeOut Group and EU-Startups on 25–26 November at Akvárium Klub in Budapest. The Summit brings together more than 1,000 founders, investors, corporate innovators and policymakers for keynotes, panels, startup competitions and curated matchmaking.
