  • WHAT IS TRACTION CAMP

    TRACTION Camp launched in 2015 as a USAID-backed project to support the business development operations of early-stage, scalable technology startups from Albania, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Bosnia&Herzegovina, Georgia, Kosovo, Macedonia, Moldova, Serbia, and Ukraine.

     

    After three TRACTION Camp events in 2015, in which 78 founders of regional startups took part, more than 50% of our participants have hired new team members, and more than 40% have raised (additional) funding for their companies.

     

    In 2016, we're taking TRACTION Camp to a new level. After our successful TRACTION Camp AgTech Silicon Valley tour in April, we are partnering with "Ukrainian Startup Pavilion" to offer a program of 5 days of preparation and two days at a dedicated pavilion at TechCrunch Disrupt SF in September 2016.
