Thanks for your questions, Niklas! It is great to hear that attending EAGxBerlin was so beneficial for you both times.
Please note: I am not affiliated with CEA in any official capacity. My insights are based on limited information and personal attendance at several EAG(x) events over the past few years.

Minor correction:
CEA and EA Netherlands are planning an event in the Netherlands, but it won't necessarily be in Rotterdam.
Thank you so much! This helps me make a decision.
Glad to hear it!
Just a quick note - EAGxBerlin is confirmed for September 13 - 15. Though applications are not yet open, you can save the date.
