OktoberINVESTfest: Connecting the USA and Bavaria

Investing in cybersecurity, health technology, smart factory and smart city was the focus of the 8th annual, Bavarian-American investors and partnering conference, OktoberINVESTfest. 

This half day virtual conference on October 29th 2020 was presented by the State of Bavaria in partnership with the City of New York. Investors and experts heard pitches from 18 top innovators from the US and Bavaria. Rising scale-ups and a unicorn shared personal stories and tips about expanding across the Atlantic, and venture capital investors were upfront about how they are making investment choices today. Most importantly, new valuable contacts were made during what felt like “in-person” networking!

At the Bavarian US Offices for Economic Development in New York, we aim to foster transatlantic business expansion, innovation and investment. “OktoberINVESTfest, has been providing a platform to fund innovative companies from the US and Bavaria since 2012”, said Jan Danisman, Executive Director at Bavaria’s New York office, “We are confident that everyone who takes part in this unique event will walk away with valuable contacts and powerful tips on growing their businesses internationally.”
