Our Manifesto
"Not a conference. Not another multi-vertical mastermind. The dropshippers who actually scaled past 8 figures in Europe, meeting in person, on purpose, for the first time. No stage. No audience seats. Peer-to-peer, or nothing."
Giovanni Conforti, CEO, Yakkyo S.p.A.
Why Apulia Edge

Four reasons this
is not like any other event

01

100% Vertical

Every person at the table is solving the same problems as you. No beginner talks. No "what is dropshipping."

50 spots · no generalists
02

Mastermind Format

3 parallel masterminds of 15 people poolside. Not a stage — a table. At a conference you listen. Here you bring your real case and the master tells you exactly what they would do.

3 tables · outdoors
03

Hosted by Yakkyo

The only listed dropshipping company. Listed on Euronext Growth Milan (YKY). Audited books. 10 years of operations. When you're with Yakkyo, you're with the only dropshipping company signed off by a European regulator.

Live Beta: Tech Surprise

A new integration that changes how you manage suppliers. Live operational demo on your real orders. Beta access available only to those in the room. Not a talk about a future feature.

The Masters.

Not vendors. Not coaches. Every master in the program is a dropshipper. $200M+ in aggregate GMV. One room.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Who can attend?

Access is curated and reserved for active dropshipping merchants. No Amazon FBA, no SaaS, no coaches. If you run a dropshipping business, you're in the right place.

What's the difference between Event Pass and Full Experience?

Event Pass includes all sessions, three parallel masterminds, the Yakkyo 1688 integration session, post-event Slack, all meals and drinks. Full Experience adds accommodation at Hotel Metamare (double room for 2), the Day 3 catamaran with the masters, and airport transfers from Bari.

Does the price really increase?

Yes. Early bird locks at first 25 confirmed. List price is €2.399 (Event Pass) and €3.940 (Full Experience). The earlier you confirm, the less you pay.

How do I get to Hotel Metamare?

Hotel Metamare is in Mola di Bari, 25 minutes from Bari Karol Wojtyła Airport (BRI). Airport transfers are available on request — let us know when you book.

Is the Day 3 catamaran included in my ticket?

The catamaran for 2 people is already included in the Full Experience. It can also be purchased as an additional add-on if you purchased the Event Pass.

What's the Chatham House Rule?

All master sessions operate under Chatham House Rule. No recording, no social content, no quotes, no names outside the room. This is what allows dropshippers like Dominic to be in the room at all. If you can't live with that for 72 hours, don't apply.
