Hessen is not only at the center of Germany, but also at the center of innovation. With one of the largest international airports, the world’s largest internet exchange point and Europe’s largest financial market in Frankfurt, it is not surprising that Hessen has become a magnet for start-ups in areas such as finance, software, logistics and mobility. A thriving ecosystem has developed around these industries, supported by 38 universities, to ensure excellence in research and development.

Renowned start-ups such as Wingcopter, Clark, Emma and Finanzguru have already set up shop in Hesse, and more are set to follow in a rapidly growing ecosystem. In order to bring the ecosystem closer together, the Hessian state government has launched “StartHub Hessen” – a state-wide organization that supports startups in every phase of their life cycle.

Whether you need access to funding, partners or just a quick tip on start-up-related questions, StartHub is the place to go. The white paper “Start-up Land Hessen” also sets the course for further support and promotion of the ecosystem.
