Eastern Europe’s most ambitious companies are scaling fast, but the next leap requires access to the world’s largest capital markets.

Pathways to Nasdaq is an exclusive, invitation-only event for visionary founders, CEOs, and investors ready to explore the journey from regional success to a global listing.

You don’t need to be a unicorn to access the U.S. capital markets. Nasdaq offers multiple listing tiers, tailored to companies at different stages of growth and across diverse industries.
