You’ve probably heard the traditional clichés about Bavaria? Some people think we drink beer, eat sausages and listen to brass band music all day long. But you know what? Like most clichés, this one isn’t entirely true.

There are countless location factors that increase Bavaria’s attractiveness for scale-ups. These include companies that are second to none, some of the best universities in the world, unparalleled scale-up networks and a digital infrastructure created for big ideas. All of these players actively support the local start-up and scale-up scene and create a thriving landscape for venture capitalists and funding institutions.

This is why managers find perfect conditions here for promoting their companies and a kaleidoscope of opportunities for cooperation with companies from different sectors – this diversity makes Bavaria an ideal location for cross-industry innovation.
