Cyprus has a fast-growing startup ecosystem, and entrepreneurs here are lucky to have so many resources available to help them in their journey. However, many people don't know about all of the resources available, the differences between them, or what resources are right for them. At this in-person event, we will help you demystify and learn more about the Cyprus Startup ecosystem. We will outline the local resources and provide tips on how to build a startup in Cyprus.
