THE PROBLEM
Conferences give you business cards, not relationships.
01
Conferences deliver low-quality networking at premium prices.
02
Executives lack spaces to build real, lasting connections.

Sports holidays focus on coaching, not community.
Cortex is where founders, investors and executives build real relationships — through padel.

Four days. Three nights. Twelve people.

11–14 March 2027
