SEAM 2026: The Founder First Festival 🧵
Belfast, 17 November 2026
Forget stuffy pitch competitions and panel-after-panel fatigue. SEAM is the founder first festival built for people who make things happen — one full day of real founders, real ideas and real energy.
Whether you're building your first idea on a napkin or scaling something with real traction, SEAM has something for you. Catch Featured Founders demoing what they're building, get hands-on at The Weave (our open ecosystem marketplace), tune into Silent Seminars as part of our Fringe Events and close it all out with drinks at The Open.
This isn't a conference or a pitch competition. It's a festival – for founders with the whole Belfast startup scene in the room.
