Researched from public pages — no submission was run · sources read 2026-09-26. Rules change — recheck the platform's own pages before submitting.
Requirements
- European tech/startup ecosystem focus — funding rounds, acquisitions, expansion, product news
- 'Pitch Your Startup' form at tech.eu/startup-form (nav: Tech.eu > Pitch Your Startup)
- A 'Contribute' route also exists in nav
- Earned editorial — staff-written coverage of European tech; no listing product
- Separate surfaces: Tech.eu Summit (startup-stage pitch applications, free tickets for early-stage), podcasts ('leave us a voicemail'), Funding Explorer
Prepare before opening the form
- A European angle — HQ, funding round, or market significance in Europe
- Concise pitch for the startup form: what it is, traction, why now
Workflow
- Submit via tech.eu/startup-form ('Pitch Your Startup')
- For event visibility, apply to pitch at the Tech.eu Summit startup stage (free tickets for early-stage companies)
- Coverage, if picked up, is a staff-written news/funding article
- Advertising is a separate nav item
Watch for
- Europe-first remit — non-European startups are off-beat
- The startup-form page fetch returned 404 even though the nav link is present — verify in a real browser; the Contact page is the fallback
- Much coverage is funding-driven — unfunded launches compete poorly
What counts as live
A Tech.eu article covering the startup is published at tech.eu
Not verified
- Whether the startup-form page is temporarily broken or moved
- Contribute-route guidelines
Sources
- Tech.eu homepage — live European tech publication; nav exposes 'Pitch Your Startup', 'Contribute', 'Contact', 'Advertise'; Funding Explorer open data product ↗
- 'Pitch Your Startup' — 'Do you want Tech.eu readers to hear about your startup? Use the form below' (per search result; page fetch 404'd but the nav link exists) ↗
