Our Story

Fueling a startup revolution, one bold idea at a time.

  • We kicked off in 2017, in the heart of Piatra Neamț, a small town in Romania’s North-East region.
  • What began locally soon went national, and now our programs inspire innovation across Romania and beyond. We’re a rising name in the Romanian startup scene-and this is just the beginning!
  • Our secret sauce? Community. We knew from day one that the real magic happens when you bring together passionate people ready to make a difference.
  • We’ve built a community of startup founders, sharp professionals, rockstar mentors, dedicated volunteers, and forward-thinking investors.
  • Add in public, private, and academic support, and you've got a recipe for unstoppable success.

NGOs.

We’re proud to be part of the Regional Development Agency of North-East Romania, a non-profit organization dedicated to public service. Our mission is to spark growth and create opportunities for startup founders.

Public Sector.

Our home, the Rubik Hub building, is a testament to the power of community. The city hall of Piatra Neamț generously provided the space, allowing us to establish a hub for innovation and collaboration.

Private Sector.

The transformation of our building was made possible by the support of local sponsors, Dedeman and Dinamic’92. Their contribution of €120,000 turned a vision into reality.

Academia.

Education is at the heart of what we do, which is why we launched RubikEDU, initially a program for students eager to explore entrepreneurship. Within our 1st year, it was embraced as a pilot program by five leading universities in Romania.
