BeGlobe American Venture Party
BeGlobe's flagship Web Summit party, reimagined as the definitive bridge between international founders, investors and the U.S. market.
BeGlobe American Venture Party is the newest edition of BeGlobe's flagship Venture Party franchise — an invite-only gathering held annually at Web Summit Lisbon since 2017. This edition centers on one theme: the bridge between international innovation and the U.S. market, which now captures roughly two-thirds of global VC funding.
The evening brings together late-stage founders, VCs, LPs, family offices, and Tier-1 journalists drawn from BeGlobe's 3,800+ community across Europe and the U.S. — in a private, informal setting built for substantive conversation, not conference-floor small talk.
In the room:
300 guests, by invitation
200 founders, pre-Series A and beyond
70 investors, $30M+ AUM
30 Tier-1 journalists
70% US-based, 30% European with a defined U.S. market focus
A dedicated Investor Lounge offers a quieter, curated space for the 70 investors most relevant to the room, open ahead of the main event. Later in the evening, a VIP Lounge opens as a second layer of curated access during networking.
Complimentary access is reserved for U.S.-based companies and funds with a majority U.S. client base. Everyone else can join through a Market-Entry Pass, opening the same room to those actively building their U.S. presence.

BeGlobe PR Agency
Dreaming of Financial Times covering your round instead of a paid mention nobody remembers by Monday? That's where BeGlobe comes in — the agency built by Julia Sabitova and Ira Tatevosyan, which has spent the last decade-plus turning complex tech, from AI and HealthTech to Web3 and SaaS, into stories that get journalists, investors, and the organizers of Web Summit, CES, and WEF lining up. And it comes with a bonus: access to the IT&VC Unicorns community, 3,000+ founders and investors strong, where the right introductions just happen. In short, a solid team for founders who want more than PR — they want results: funding rounds, partnerships, and real industry recognition.
BeGlobe has placed clients in Financial Times, CNN, The New York Times, The Guardian, Bloomberg, TechCrunch, Forbes, and Cointelegraph, and secured founder speaking slots at Web Summit, CES, World Economic Forum, Milken Institute Global Conference, TechCrunch Disrupt, Slush, London, New York, and San Francisco Tech Weeks.
With offices across ten cities, BeGlobe handles funding announcements that need to land in US and European press simultaneously, go-to-market campaigns for brands entering new geographies, and founder visibility programs that compound over time.
Fledge is a dating app designed to help people understand compatibility before they start dating. Going beyond attraction, Fledge uses a research-based approach that considers personality, values, and relationship preferences to identify who may genuinely be a good fit before the first message.
The result is fewer, more meaningful matches and a calmer way to date at your own pace, with less pressure, less performance, and more space to be yourself.
Fledge is built by serial entrepreneurs with experience creating dating products used by more than 20 million people, including one of Europe's top-10 dating platforms. Its compatibility model draws on established behavioral science, and the company intends to pursue independent research partnerships.
Founded in 2026, Fledge is headquartered in Delaware.
