Startup
League Program Head Lenold Vaz said,
“We are thrilled and proud to have
supported so many innovative
startups at Web Summit. We believe
that high-potential startups deserve
a powerful go-to-market strategy and
Web Summit is the perfect platform
for startups on our TLDs to showcase
their product to the most evolved
tech audience in the world.”

Along
with their booth sponsorship, the
Startup League provided booth
goodies such as stickers, badges,
stationery as well as t-shirts
branded with respective startups’
logos for greater booth engagement
and visibility for each startup.
They also amplified the promotions
for these startups through online
marketing, content marketing and
social media hype.

After
sponsoring over 50 startups at

League is setting their sites
even higher for 2019. Lenold
noted, "The incremental
impact that we are able to
create for these startups is
encouraging and we are looking
forward to an even bigger show
next year. This is an
exciting time for new domains
as more and more startups are
embracing them to reflect
their commitment to innovation
and focus on futuristic
trends."

the Startup League previously
