TechChill is a startup event that was founded in Riga, Latvia in 2012. organized by the founders of TechHub Riga – the first co-working space in Riga focusing on startups. It was held originally under the name of “TechCrunch Baltics”.
From a party 12 years ago to over 3000+ participants attending TechChill’s main event and 15+ side events – we’ve come a long way.
Today, TechChill is the place to come to explore the Baltic startup ecosystem, meet international investors, and, above all, it’s about building a global community.

Sisko pitch at TechChill 2023
Baltic countries are the next startup nations. The original “startup nation” is Israel – everyone knows it. This region has a lot of similarities to Israel – very small local markets, so our founders, from day one, need to build global companies.
We have a strong tech talent pool with excellent English skills and a hustle mentality to go and tackle big markets.
That generates a snowball effect, and with scaleups growing, they’re educating and training future talents, who would create new startups.
