Unicorn Pitches Lisbon | May 28 | AI Transforming Industries: Real-World Use Cases,
May 28, 2026

Calling all Innovation Enthusiasts! 


Join us for the highly anticipated Unicorn Pitches Lisbon on May 28th, 2026 at 6:00 PM!

The age of AI experimentation is over. What comes next is deployment.

On May 28, Unicorn Pitches returns to Lisbon with a sharp new focus: AI Transforming Industries — Real-World Use Cases. Ten handpicked startups will take the stage at Fintech House Lisboa and pitch products already running in production — in healthcare, fintech, logistics, legal, manufacturing, and beyond.

No concept decks. No vaporware. Just founders who are turning AI into enterprise contracts, cost savings, and entirely new markets.


Why this room matters:

This is not a conference. Unicorn.Events has spent 14 years building one of the most efficient deal-flow formats in the startup world — and the numbers back it up: winners of Unicorn Pitches have collectively raised over $1 billion in funding.

On May 28 you'll be in a room with:

  • 50+ active investors

  • 5+ family offices

  • 7–10 venture capitalists

  • 10 of Europe's most promising AI founders


How it works:

Each startup gets 3 minutes to pitch, followed by live Q&A from the jury. Distinguished VCs score presentations in real time via electronic voting. The winner earns a direct slot at the Unicorn flagship event in San Francisco — and the exposure that comes with it.
