Investors Workshop by Axel
Your first step into the world of startup investing

The Axel Investor Workshop is a 2-day hands-on experience designed for business professionals ready to take their first steps into startup investing. The workshop brings together 30–50 C-level executives from leading companies, Axel's member angel investors, and founders from our portfolio startups. Participants will learn directly from experienced investors, successful entrepreneurs, and key players shaping Georgia’s startup ecosystem.

About our workshop
2 Days
Intensive, hands-on learning experience in an informal, offsite setting.
30-50 Participants
Pre-selected, experienced C-level individuals interested in angel investing.
10+ experts
Experienced angel investors, and founders sharing real-life stories and strategies.

The workshop will be organised first time this May, with two editions. Both workshops will take place outside of Tbilisi, in a relaxed setting. We believe learning works best when it's enjoyable and we’re combining practical knowledge with great company, fun conversations, and a bit of adventure.
