Only two months to go before the European conference Plugg starts. In case you haven’t heard about this conference yet, let me tell you what their mission is: raising global awareness for European start-ups in the Web / Mobile 2.0 field. Sounds familiar? You betcha! This blog is, amongst other things, also trying to promote our spectacular start-up culture. That’s why we became mediapartner of Plugg.

And we now have some interesting news for European start-ups. Plugg wants you to offer early-stage funding and trade press, tech blogger and early-adopter attention. Only thing you have to do is subscribing for the Start-ups Rally.

A number of industry professionals will select the 20 start-ups they consider to be the best. Those lucky and apparently talented guys get to pitch at the conference on March 19th in Brussels and have a chance of winning the Plugg Start-Up of the Year Award 2008. The deadline for registration is Friday the 8th of February.

Looking forward to seeing you guys in Brussels!
