About Innovate Slovakia
Information and data are critical for fact-based decision making and the growth of the startup and innovation ecosystem.
To help the Slovak innovation and startup ecosystem flourish, we decided to create a place that will help key stakeholders find all opportunities and use them to the maximum. By doing so, we hope to become a catalyst for better and more innovative Slovakia.
This initiative was created as a collaboration of an innovation consultancy Civitta and SAPIE – Slovak Alliance for Innovation Economy.
