We offer different ticket types: Investor, Founder, Attendee (not a founder or investor), Student, Group Tickets (2 investor ticket and 5 startup tickets), and Media Passes.

Why do the tickets have different prices?

This tiered structure encourages a diverse mix of participants, from the visionaries building new products to the investors who fuel their growth, creating a dynamic, well-rounded conference experience. Read more about our ticket pricing philosophy here.
Does an MXT Ticket also grant me access to ESNS?

No, the MXT Ticket does not provide access to ESNS or the ESNS Conference. However, starting in January, we will offer an add-on: a reduced-rate ticket for the ESNS Conference available to our MXT attendees. Guests will be informed about this option after purchasing an MXT ticket.
