Will your innovation take the next step in 2023 with a test during Eurosonic Noorderslag?

Innofest is for entrepreneurs who want to make an impact. Entrepreneurs who work on today's and tomorrow's challenges with innovative solutions.

Assumption is the mother of all fuck-ups. That's why Innofest believes so strongly in the importance of testing. Nine out of ten innovations fail because a prototype has not been sufficiently tested before it goes to market. This costs entrepreneurs a lot of time, money and energy. We help entrepreneurs test their prototypes as early as possible.

From January 18-21, 2023, new test spots are available at Europe's biggest showcase festival: Eurosonic Noorderslag (ESNS). Do you want to get off to a flying start in 2023? Then sign up through this link, you can do so until October 24.

The focus of ESNS

ESNS is focusing the upcoming edition on the themes of sustainability and social inclusion. Entrepreneurs who fit into these themes therefore have a greater chance of getting a test spot at the festival.
