Invest Hub Show: Open Microphone to take place at Kazan Venture Forum

On April 10, 2026, during the Russian Venture Forum in Kazan, the “Invest Hub Show: Open Microphone” will be held.

In today’s economic environment, investors and startups are seeking honest and long-term collaboration. This event is aimed at providing a platform for open dialogue between the parties and help identify partners with aligned values.

The show will begin at 12:00 PM in the format of an intellectual duel among the eight leading investors in Russia. Each investor will have 9 minutes to present, making the total duration of the show 100 minutes. Participants will share insights about themselves and their company’s strategy and answer pressing questions from the moderator and forum guests.

Audience members will evaluate investors in real-time based on three criteria: accuracy of forecasts, viability of strategies and willingness to collaborate. A public ranking of investors will be compiled at the end of the show.

This event is aimed at increasing transparency within the venture market and foster the development of new projects. Startups will have opportunities to find new partners, while investors can publicly affirm their status.

The Russian Venture Forum is the largest event in the venture industry. It will take place on April 8 at the Popov TechnoPark in Innopolis and on April 9-10 at Kazan Expo. This year, the forum is expected to gather around 6,000 participants, over 150 startups, and 250 investors.
