Announcing the 2019 Summer Unplug Retreat 🏔
June 26th-29th, Val di Rabbi, Italy
TL;DR: Unplug 2019. June 26th-29th. The best people in crypto. Request invite at unplug.vc
We’ve now been organizing Unplug retreats for almost two years. It started as a joke/experiment to see if I could bring some of my favorite European investors to spend some time with me in the Dolomites — as I’m lazy and didn’t want to trot around Europe all the time.
What it turned into — I couldn’t predict.
Unplug is now an amazing community of investors, entrepreneurs, operators, developers and researchers, and it often feels like we’ve all found our tribe.
The latest event, in September, brought together 100 (one hundred!) people on top of a mountain, sleeping in a old mountain refuge. It still feels a bit reckless, but it was all worth it.
We’ve now had attendees from the best funds, companies and projects in the crypto space.
But more importantly, we’ve witnessed many new relationships blossom: companies being co-founded, projects receiving investments, funds hiring employees, and much more.

And also of the two previous ones:
Unplug 2019
This year, we will continue in the same vein, and keeping all the small things that have worked so well.
Like all the other events, this one will be in a completely new area and all new structures, so as to make it interesting also for the strong community of returning alumni.
We are lowering the size to a more manageable 80 attendees, and still keeping it invite-only. We have really understood that the curation of attendees is one of the main values that this event provides, and therefore do not want to grow it into something that would destroy its very essence.
As always, the locations will be stunning, the food will be delicious, and the people will be amazing.
A small preview:
This time around, we’ll have the hardest hike to date, with 1000m of vertical ascent, so this event is exclusively reserved for people that are in good physical shape.
There is no need to train, but there is a need to be able to sustain physical activity for hours and not have any problems. We will have professional mountain guides and they will decide if people will be able to embark on the trek or not, so we will try to screen for that at application time so as to not create any unpleasant surprise during the day.
For the first time, we’ll have an extremely exciting new activity: rafting on the Noce river. I must say I’m looking forward to this one!
