MTSB Europe starts soon

Get ready, MTSB Europe is loading…

Seven high-potential startups that successfully completed the Digital Den Pre-Acceleration Program are soon beginning with a two-week program across Luxembourg, Belgium, and the Netherlands.

The program is designed to facilitate direct engagement with investors, innovation hubs, and key European stakeholders, with a strong focus on international expansion and market readiness.

MTSB Europe is a natural continuation of our mission to prepare our top startups for the international stage – not through talk, but through real opportunities, face-to-face meetings, and access to new markets.

Stay tuned for updates from pitching sessions, behind-the-scenes moments, and the cohort’s first steps across Europe — and in the days leading up to the journey, get to know each of the startups taking part in the first edition of MTSB Europe.

Closing conference of the Softmove project

The SOFTMOVE project, implemented under the Interreg IPA South Adriatic Programme 2021–2027, successfully concluded with a final conference held in Bari, Italy.

The event brought together partners from Italy, Albania, and Montenegro to present project outcomes, reflect on key insights from past activities, and formally sign a Memorandum of Understanding to support continued collaboration beyond the project’s scope.

Our representative presented the activities carried out in Montenegro, along with Digital Den’s contribution to the Joint Action Plan aimed at developing a feasibility model for a smart cities approach across the IPA region. This contribution included an analysis of the current state of urban transport, a proposed model for integrating UAS technologies into city management, and a feasibility overview in the Montenegrin context.

The conference marked the conclusion of a year and a half of meaningful collaboration, knowledge exchange, and cross-border teamwork.

Our fifth cohort is announced

The ideas were pitched, the decisions made – and we have our winners!

The final day of our Pre-Acceleration Program, held at the Naučno-tehnološki park Crne Gore / Science Technology Park of Montenegro, brought together everything that defines a strong startup community: dedication, knowledge, support, and teams ready for the next chapter.

Startups presented their ideas in front of a live audience and a jury made up of representatives from the EBRD, the U.S. Embassy, the program’s lead mentor Stephan Botz, and the Digital Den team. Together, they selected our fifth startup cohort.

The title of the most promising startups goes to:

3DLoom, YachtHe, Valifiy, Pet Travel Advisor, SYSQBIT LLC, Benefiti and WhereToPark.

Next up: the MTSB Europe program and more opportunities in Belgium, Luxembourg, and the Netherlands.

Demo Day welcomed a wide range of voices from Montenegro’s startup scene — from ministries and banks to universities, funds, and support organizations.

Thank you to everyone who supported the event through their active engagement — and congratulations to all startups for their courage, commitment, and vision.

A special thanks to the EBRD for supporting the organization of the program and helping strengthen collaboration across the ecosystem.

Demo Day around the corner

The final day of the Digital Den Pre-Acceleration Program is around the corner!

In just one day, teams from our latest program will pitch their startup ideas to mentors, investors, and key players from the innovation ecosystem at the Science Technology Park of Montenegro.

Demo Day marks the culmination of months of hard work — from product development and market validation to preparing for the next stage of growth. During the event, the audience and jury will have the chance to help select the most promising teams that will join our 5th startup cohort.

At Digital Den, we believe that change doesn’t just happen — it’s built step by step, through knowledge, dedication, and the right opportunities. And Demo Day is exactly that: a space where ideas are recognized and given the chance to move forward.

A special thanks to EBRD for recognizing the value of this program and making its implementation possible through their support.
