TechBBQ is one of Copenhagen’s biggest tech events, and it really did start with meat on a grill


Ever been to a BBQ with 6,000 other people?

Maybe, if you’ve been to TechBBQ, though it didn’t start out like that. In 2012, five Danish entrepreneurs came together to host the first incarnation of the event. There, 150 people in tech came together to talk shop at their first meetup in Copenhagen. 

Since then, the event has gone from strength to strength, now employing 10-12 full-time staff, hosting the aforementioned 6,000 guests, and showcasing two days of content that’s helped countless businesses scale and see out their ambitions.

Here, Sifted have provided a wonderful write-up on a wonderful event.
