Passion & Talent Alliance
About
Passion and Talent Alliance is an event organizer focused on bringing together entrepreneurial ecosystems across global hubs. Established with events running since 2026, the organization takes a sector-agnostic approach, creating structured gatherings that bridge the gaps between commercial innovation, capital, and academic research.
What they run
The group organizes conferences and summits, with six total gatherings on their roster spanning locations like Munich, Singapore, Miami, Auckland, Half Moon Bay, and Phoenix. Their flagship recurring series is HAPPY STARTUP – Connecting Startups, Investors and Universities, which accounts for the majority of their schedule. Upcoming events include a Singapore conference, a Miami summit, and international conferences across Auckland, Half Moon Bay, and Phoenix.
Who attends
Their gatherings are built specifically for early-stage and growth founders seeking connections across multiple sectors rather than a single niche. The primary audience combines startup teams, angel and venture investors, and university researchers or academic partners looking to commercialize technology. Attendees arrive aiming to secure early funding, establish academic partnerships, or scout emerging venture talent across international markets.
