What we've builtfor you

A shorter menu on phones

On phones, Menu now opens a short list instead of the full desktop menu: Program, Travel & Venue, Challenges, Partners, Media accreditation and Insights.

• Tap the dimmed page, press Escape or pick a link to close it.
• The page you are on is marked in the list.

Official press image

Journalists can download the Deep Tech Summit 2026 press image from the media page, next to the logo pack.

• JPG, 1200 × 675 px, ready for editorial use.

A new menu: Program, Travel & Venue, Take part, Insights

The top bar now has four groups. Each opens a panel with its pages and the key facts about them.

• Program: both agenda days, speakers and the six track tiles.
• Travel & Venue: jump straight to the venue, evening event, hotels and transfers.
• Take part: CEE Challenge 2026, all challenges, partners and media accreditation.
• Insights: the CEE Startups Landscape, events and contact.

Plan your trip

One guide for getting to Warsaw and around it. It opens with the two venues: Fabryka Norblina for October 26–27, and the evening event at Dom Towarowy Bracia Jabłkowscy.

• Each venue has its address and a Get directions link.
• A Sunday-to-Wednesday itinerary, with the evening event under Day 2.
• Airports compared side by side, transfer times from each starting point, and hotels near the venue.
• Half-day ideas for seeing Warsaw between sessions.

• PDF and EPS vector files for print and layout.

The privacy policy link in our terms works again

The Summit 2026 terms point readers to deeptechsummit.eu/privacy-policy. That address now opens the Summit 2026 privacy policy.

The CEE Challenge open call, up front

On the challenges page, the CEE Challenge 2026 card now spans the full width, shows the deadline in large type, and puts Apply first.

Media accreditation

Journalists, editors, photographers, broadcasters and podcasters can apply to cover the Summit directly on the site.

• What accredited media receive, who can apply, and the October 23, 2026 deadline.
• Photos from the 2025 edition and the press desk contact.
• A press badge on a lanyard you can drag around.

A faster homepage

The homepage is now served from cache, and public pages no longer hang when the database is slow to answer.

A calmer design

Fewer colors and one navy behind every homepage section, so the parts you act on stand out.

• Apply, submit, partner and meet buttons are cyan stickers; ticket buttons stay magenta.
• One ticket band instead of two, and a days / hours / minutes countdown.
• Become a partner now sits with the partner logos.

Agenda timeline and featured sessions

The agenda now has a timeline view: rooms across, times down, so you can see what runs at the same moment.

• Featured sessions sit above the day tabs and jump to their slot in the timeline.
• Hover a speaker's photo or name to see their role and bio.
• Phones keep the list view.

Country flags on speaker cards

Speaker cards on the homepage and the speakers page show each speaker's flag and country code beside their name.

A homepage built for phones

On a phone, the homepage is about 790px shorter and easier to scan.

• The hero artwork stays visible, faded behind the headline.
• Full-width buttons, stats in a 2 × 2 grid, and shorter track tiles.

CEE Challenge jury and investment partner

The CEE Challenge page introduces New Wave VC as investment partner and the jury: Jacek Kubrak, Ian Firla, Marian Popinigis and Christian Kumar.

• Eligible countries show as flag chips on the challenges page too.

A live program from Gridaly

The agenda reads the program straight from Gridaly, where the team edits it, so changes appear on the site within about a minute.

• Times are shown in Warsaw time (CET).
• On the homepage, each day shows a timeline of its stages, colored by the audience each stage serves.

Only 2026 speakers and sessions

The speakers page, profiles, agenda and track pages now show the 2026 edition only.

A 404 page worth landing on

Mistyped links now land on a deep-tech themed page. Press Measure again for one of eight excuses, then head back to the homepage or the agenda.

Ticket cards follow your cursor

Hover a ticket card and a glow in that ticket's color follows your mouse.

Links from the old site work again

Thirteen addresses from the previous site, still linked from search results, LinkedIn and past emails, now open the right page or say the page is gone.

• /prelegents opens the speakers page and /tickets opens the ticket shop.

The CEE Challenge 2026 page

The CEE Challenge has its own page with the timeline, alumni, prizes and partners. Other open calls moved to the challenges page.

• Eligibility as a seven-point checklist, with 22 eligible countries and their flags.
• Eight alumni success stories as cards you can flip.
• The timeline counts down to the next milestone.

Price-rise countdown

The homepage counts down to the October 16 ticket price rise, in the hero and in the ticket band.

Terms and privacy in the footer

The footer's Legal column links the Summit 2026 terms and conditions and privacy policy. The CEE Challenge card links the challenge terms above Apply.

CEE Startups Landscape report

What three years of CEE Challenge applications say about deep tech in Central and Eastern Europe: 750+ applications and 267 verified companies, with charts by country and funding.

Better link previews

Sharing deeptechsummit.eu in iMessage and other apps now shows the Summit logo on navy instead of a speaker photo.

Deep-tech events directory

A directory of deep-tech events across Europe, each checked by the Summit team before it is published.

Speaker search without reloads

The speakers page filters as you type, and the search stays in the link so you can share it.

Who is this for?

The homepage names the five groups the Summit is built for: corporate leaders, investors, founders and operators, scientists and researchers, and the public sector.

Sessions in more than one track

A session can now belong to several tracks, so it appears on each of their pages.

All Summit partners in one place, grouped by tier.

The new Summit site

The rebuilt site goes beyond the homepage: an agenda with day tabs, a speaker directory with a profile for every speaker, a page per track, and a contact page.

A new homepage

The homepage was rebuilt from the Deep Tech Summit Figma design, under the headline “The home of European deep tech”.
