Presentation of the Russian Venture Forum and Invest Fest to be Held in Nizhny Novgorod – Registration Open
On December 4, a presentation of the Russian Venture Forum ecosystem and a closed Invest Fest event will take place in Nizhny Novgorod – a meeting that will bring together tech startups, IT companies, investors, and representatives of regional innovation hubs. Participants can expect presentations of key support programs, project pitches, and the opportunity to enter the pool of teams being formed for participation in the Russian Venture Forum-2026 in Kazan.
The goal of the event is to present the RVF's opportunities to the regional community, establish cooperation between ecosystems, and select teams ready to scale up and interact with Tatarstan venture funds and federal partners.
Invest Fest will feature a pitch session for Nizhny Novgorod startups. This is an opportunity for teams to:
present their product to investors without long communication cycles;
receive feedback from experts and partners;
enter the regional and federal investment funnel;
establish contacts with representatives of funds, accelerators, and corporate programs.
Based on the pitch results, three projects will be selected to participate in the Russian Venture Forum-2026 and receive free booths at the forum venue.
The meeting program includes presentations by Gorky Tech, the Russian Venture Forum, MTS StartUp Hub, the Lobachevsky Fund, and Technopark "Idea," speeches by representatives of regional innovation infrastructure, startup pitches, and subsequent informal communication.
The event will take place on December 4 at 4:00 PM in Nizhny Novgorod, at the Corner Place Business Center (6/16 Alekseevskaya St.).
