FOMO, the Festival of Modern Owners, spans five days of conferences, workshops, live interviews, and over 30 networking events and community activations across Bucharest, between May 21-25, 2025. Tickets can be bought here.
Present at the pre-event press conference, His Excellency Giles Portman, the United Kingdom’s Ambassador to Romania said that ”FOMO aligns perfectly with the UK’s development agenda. We’ve surpassed £10 billion in UK-Romania trade. SMEs are engines of prosperity and need real support.”
BCR, the event’s main partner, was represented by Dana Dima, Vice President of Retail & Private Banking, who added that ”FOMO is an open stage for Romanian entrepreneurs who want to believe in themselves. I believe in entrepreneurs who started from scratch and succeeded through consistency and courage.”
“Entrepreneurship is not necessarily about money or financial independence, because honestly, I’ve never worked so hard for so little money! It’s 1% idea and 99% sweat. But when you believe in your project with all your heart, there’s no way you won’t succeed,” confessed Adina Foldager, founder of Adinish, and FOMO speaker.
FOMO brings together over 60 Romanian entrepreneurs, alongside international guests such as Steven Bartlett, Simon Squibb, Dan Priestley, Sara Al Madani, and Jason Derulo, at Sala Palatului and other partner venues: Apollo 111, Nook, Grădina Alhambra, and Sala Luceafărul.
