Joining a technology conference is always interesting. Joining a two-day conference with 600+ founders, 1000+ students, 250+ corporates and 200+ investors is inspirational on many levels. Even if I would have joined a couple of talks, the mindset of these entrepreneurs is amazing. They are the ones who try and try until all the pieces of the puzzle fit into place. They are the crazy ones. The trouble makers. They are the ones who question today to change tomorrow.

• Emmy-winning journalist Jeff Kofman’s talk: From the frontlines of Libya to the trenches of tech
• Peter Ruff’s presentation: AI supported medical diacnostics – are the doctors ready?
• Showcase: Kenkou: how to reduce your stress within minutes
• Showcase: Aesyra: a solution for bruxism affecting 30% of adults

My detailed report of the START summit will be published on Monday. Talks, panel discussions, startups, highlights and stories.

Joining an event about innovation is always inspirational. These events were the highlights of the day.
