Standup - QLOONG Vol. 8

QLOONG VOL. 8: WHERE GOOD IDEAS GET SHARPER. Mark your calendars. Armenia's most brutally honest startup event is back. 📅 November 19, 2026 🕒 Doors open: 19:00 🕒 Event starts: 20:00 📍 AI9 Startup Campus, 9 Isahakyan St. What is QLOONG? QLOONG is where startups get the feedback they rarely hear elsewhere. A jury of investors, entrepreneurs, and industry experts asks the tough questions. No sugarcoating, no polite applause for the sake of it. On Stage Three startups pitch. Three jurors challenge them. One defender has the founders' backs. Strong ideas get the chance to prove themselves. The rest? They'll find out what needs work. In the Audience Not pitching? You're still in for a good evening. Get a front-row seat to the action, see how ideas hold up under pressure, learn a thing or two about building a startup, and connect with founders, investors, and the people shaping the ecosystem. There's also an open mic at the end for anyone eager to share their idea on the spot. Our Partners Armenia Education Initiative, Friedrich Naumann Foundation for Freedom Armenia, BANA Angels, TUSHPA x LAB, and AI9. Think your startup is ready for the challenge?
