ONE MISSION

🎈 Cheers to 10 Years of Gründerland Bayern 🎈 Yesterday, we had the pleasure of attending Gründerland Bayern Forum, celebrating 1️⃣0️⃣ years of supporting Bavaria's #startupecosystem. 🎉 Besides interesting panels and keynotes, we met a lot of familiar faces and met new great changemaker in the startup ecosystem ! ⭐️ Our key take aways: 🥨 Current State of Bavaria’s #StartupScene: Munich is still Germanys Startup Hot Spot 💪 With its fantastic universities, flourishing industries and extraordinary startup hubs like WERK1 – the most startup-friendly place in Munich or ZOLLHOF – Tech Incubator, Bavaria remains a dynamic hub for innovative startups with a strong support network. 💸 Startup #Financing: Funding Budget will be increased - Gründerland Bayern will support startups even more than before with „Risiko-Fonds“ to create more readiness to take risks. What we still need more: #VCs and #BusinessAngels 🎓 #Universities as "Founding Forges": The importance of universities fostering entrepreneurial thinking and providing access to networks and resources was emphasized. In average, only 0,1 % of the overall university budget is used for spin-offs 🤯 At UnternehmerTUM, it’s 5% thanks to Helmut Schoenenberger! As State Secretary Tobias Gotthardt aptly said: „You never walk alone“ - in Bavaria, startups and industry, science and SME´s work hand in hand 🙏🏼 Instead of #germanangst, let´s create more #bavarianmodd for a strong Europe! 🥨 🩵🍻 Thanks for the great support in the Bavarian Startup Ecosystem and driving #innovation and #diversity in the whole Gründerland Bayern Community 🌈 🎂 Happy Birthday 🥳 Gründerland Bayern and to many more successful years! 🚀 Bayerisches Staatsministerium für Wirtschaft, Landesentwicklung und Energie Dr. Sabine Jarothe Christoph Pfaff Julia Vierneisel Dr. Reinhard Saller Jens Schindler Dr. Gerald Boxberger Carsten Rudolph Adrian A.
