Eurobike’s move to Frankfurt brought new formats and events for the world’s leading bike industry event. Since the city is known as a major financial center, show organiser fairnamic teamed up with Ralf Kindermann of Kindermann Value Creation to add the Investors Lounge to the program. The event offers potential investors insights into current trends, market developments and promising start-ups in the bicycle industry and e-mobility sector. For its third edition, the event extends its scope to recruiting and supply chain issues and investment activities in Asia.
The Investors Lounge includes key notes and presentations from partners such as Deloitte, Houlihan Lokey, Zweirad Industrie Verband (ZIV), Zukunft Fahrrad (ZF) and Bootcamp Bike. The program has been expanded to include a presentation on supply chain issues and challenges from ally’s Michael Brenner and another presentation of Anchor Asia’s Elisa Chiu on Asian ventures. A guided tour of the trade fair allows for first-hand impressions with products and their makers.
Capping things off is an informal networking meeting with some snacks. The Investors Lounge will be held on Wednesday afternoon and on Thursday morning in Transparency Room 1, Portalhaus Level 1.
The attendance fee is €249 and tickets are available through the Eurobike ticket shop.
