The Venture Club Disrupt Awards 2026 took place on June 2, 2026, at the Martinický Palace at Prague Castle. The 6/2026 edition featured five finalist companies—see this teaser—and the winner, PANGEAI, founded by Marek Miltner and Johanna von der Leyen. We hosted a presentation of the evening’s winner on June 16, 2026, at DnuD. Pangea is raising capital, and if you’re a member of the Venture Club or Podnikám Česky, you can even make a small investment with us in this highly agile startup, headquartered in California with a branch in Prague.
