Held under the theme “In Motion”, the event brought together thousands of key players from the entrepreneurial ecosystem at La Nave in Madrid, creating an ideal environment to foster meaningful connections, share experiences, and explore new opportunities.

Once again, the strong collaboration between the Mondragon Team Academy – Faculty of Business Studies at Mondragon Unibertsitatea and MONDRAGON Ventures helped strengthen our community’s visibility and positioning as an active player in the innovation and entrepreneurship landscape.

Some of the most significant moments of this edition included:

Joseba Sagastigordia, Director of MONDRAGON Ventures, participated in the roundtable "The Global Investment Landscape: Trends Shaping the Future", sharing insights into corporate investment alongside international experts.

Aitor Lizartza Martin, Coordinator of Mondragon Team Academy, joined the panel "The Nomad Economy: Work, Connection & Impact", sharing the global learning journey experiences of LEINN students.

During the PITCH Session by UP! Euskadi – Basque Startup Ecosystem, three out of nine presentations were delivered by leinners: Lola Uriarte (MAIRU), Sara Rekalde (YORSIO) and Ander Maiztegi (ZERU Drones).

TRAK, a project led by members of the MTA community, was selected as a finalist in the HEALTH category.

The South Summit also allowed us to reconnect with many LEINN graduates now working in startups, corporations and institutions — a great chance to share learnings and feel inspired by their professional and personal journeys.

This 2024–2025 academic year, we’ve launched LEINNnext, the global community of LEINN graduates from the entire MTA international network. South Summit has been an excellent platform to strengthen these connections and highlight the collective impact of our team entrepreneurs.
