Germany's largest startup festival is just around the corner. Before Bits & Pretzels 2017 kicks off on September 24, the organizers have a few more highlights to announce. This is sure to delight passionate TV fans.
That the Hollywood actor Kevin Spacey will once again find its way to Bits & Pretzels, we were already able to reportUntil now, however, it was unclear exactly what his role as an "international guest" entailed. Now we know that he won't be delivering a keynote speech, but will be conducting an interview with two top founders of the European startup scene: Rolf Schrömgens, Co-Founder and CEO of trivago, and Lukasz Gadowski, co-founder of Delivery Hero.
Bits & Pretzels 2017: Place to be for TV heroes?
And not only fans of "House of Cards" but also fans of the successful series "Game of Thrones" will get their money's worth at Bits & Pretzels 2017. The actress Carice van Houten will speak about "courage" at the Founders' Festival, followed by a Q&A session on the topic (September 25, starting at 2:45 p.m., Center Stage). And who better to speak about "courage" than the red priestess "Melisandre," who always courageously stands up for her convictions and doesn't shy away from drastic measures.
Another success story: Bits & Pretzels 2017 is now sold out. Anyone who still wants to follow the Munich Founders Festival can do so via the Munich Startup website and the corresponding social media channels (Facebook, Instagram, Twitter) do.
