ABOUT THE BOOK

Berlin has a well-established reputation for innovation and entrepreneurship, but there’s more to Germany’s startup scene than its capital city. From Frankfurt’s lively fintech ventures to Hamburg’s growing gaming industry, there’s a lot to explore.

 

Startup Guide Germany highlights local entrepreneurs and initiatives dedicated to purposeful innovation. Discover the startups, founders, programs, investors and schools focused on sustainability and social impact across five regions: Berlin, Frankfurt, Hamburg, Nuremberg and Ruhr. Alongside insightful interviews from leaders and inspiring stories, you’ll find the tools you need to navigate Germany’s startup ecosystems.

 

This book is made in partnership with Impact Hub Berlin, Impact Hub Hamburg and Impact Hub Ruhr and with the support of Berlin Partner for Business and Technology, FrankfurtRheinMain GmbH, Hamburg@work, ZOLLHOF, Initiativkreis Ruhr and startport.
