ABOUT US<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What does Foundersphere stand for?<\/h1>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
\n

“Founder” represents the entrepreneurial spirit that brings new ideas to life, while “Sphere” symbolizes the space we create to connect the startup world. We believe that startups can change the world. For them to succeed, it is important to create an environment in which they can grow and thrive. <\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n

Our values<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We think and act proactively. This means that we strive to make connections, develop ideas and reach out to everyone involved even before anyone asks us. <\/p><\/div><\/div>

\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/path><\/svg>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/path><\/svg>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\tMultiplication<\/span><\/div>

In everything we do, we try to keep the big picture in mind. We want to use our resources in such a way that as many start-ups and players in the ecosystem as possible benefit from them. <\/p><\/div><\/div>

\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/path><\/svg>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/path><\/svg>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\tApproachable<\/span><\/div>

We love start-ups and everyone who does something with or for them. That’s why we look forward to hearing from you and do our best to answer all your questions in a friendly and supportive manner. <\/p><\/div><\/div>

\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/path><\/svg>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/path><\/svg>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\tCooperative<\/span><\/div>

We are convinced that working together is always better than working against each other. We are open to cooperation and are absolute team players, both internally and externally. <\/p><\/div><\/div>

\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/path><\/svg>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/path><\/svg>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\tLoud<\/span><\/div>

We stand by the Foundersphere, the startup scene and our team members. When it comes to issues that concern us, we voice our opinion vehemently and loudly. <\/p><\/div><\/div>

\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/path><\/svg>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/path><\/svg>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\tFairness<\/span><\/div>

We believe in karma and in always seeing each other twice. That’s why we treat start-ups, stakeholders, partners and ourselves as fairly as we would want the other way around. <\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

This is important to us<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

These are the values that we at Foundersphere take to heart and to which we align our work. <\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n

\"Campaign<\/div><\/div>
2017<\/div>

Our journey begins in Munich. <\/h2>

Many encounters in the ecosystem inspire Sascha to launch a campaign from the startup scene, for the startup scene. The aim is to highlight shared values, provide an overview and invite people to network. More than 300 startups and 50 players respond to the first call and lay the foundation for the “It takes a city to raise a startup” campaign, which is financed by the first partners.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div>

2018<\/div>

Expansion Frankfurt<\/h2>

Fabian joins as a later co-founder and brings the campaign to FrankfurtRhineMain as “It takes a region to raise a startup”. At the same time the second campaign launches in Munich. Both campaigns are a complete success. Can we make more out of this passion project?<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div>

2019<\/div>

The Ecosystem Company<\/h2>

The expansion preparations are underway, more partners are joining and the first enquiries are being made as to whether we could become active for the start-up scenes and established companies beyond the campaigns. Time for our own commitment: We are founding ‘The Ecosystem Company’, under whose branding we will bundle our activities for the next 4 years. Martin joins the team as a business angel, who also implements the first campaign in Augsburg. We are allowed to implement an exclusive networking event and bring together founders with corporates. Phenomenal feedback from both sides.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div>

\"\"<\/div><\/div>
2020<\/div>

Everything’s upside down<\/h2>

With the slogan “When a virus turns the world upside down – the ecosystem must move closer together”, the campaigns are all about Covid. We are dedicating a new campaign to the emerging ecosystem in the Ruhr region. To ensure that start-ups and actors can continue to exchange ideas, we organise regular “Virtual Round Tables” (VRTs for short). These VRTs will remain even when networking is finally possible in person again. Startups approach us and ask about accelerators that offer their program remotely – work begins on the first Accelerator Guide Germany.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div>

<\/span><\/div>
<\/div><\/div>
\"\"<\/div><\/div>
2021<\/div>

The portfolio is growing<\/h2>

The Accelerator Guide Germany is published and highlights, compares and explains more than 55 programs throughout Germany. Both the print version and the PDFs (both free of charge) will be a complete success. We would like to thank Persilla Partners and Michael Strommer for their expertise and cooperation. With the networking event format Founders’ Poker, we are taking over a brand that has been known nationwide since 2013. Our portfolio therefore includes brand presence, virtual and physical networking, guides and consulting.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div>

The expansion<\/h2>

The year of the expansion. The first campaign abroad is launchen in the Zurich ecosystem. This was followed by 12 more campaigns nationwide: from Hamburg to Munich, from the Rhineland to Saxony. We support our partners’ teams with workshops and seminars to help them better understand startups and ecosystems and better adapt their own services to the needs of founders<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div>

2023<\/div>

Foundersphere<\/h2>

What started as a one-off hobby project and was professionalized in 2019 as ‘The Ecosystem Company’ is now getting a new look. More importantly, our campaigns, guides, events, the platform and everything else to come needs a common name. A name that start-ups, players, partners, networks and companies can join. Welcome to the Foundersphere!<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div>

2024<\/div>

Growth<\/h2>

The Foundersphere is growing: new offers for founders and startups with the Knowledge Hub and the Startup Benefit Program. The new Accelerator Guide is published at the same time. For the first time in our history, we are not only dedicating a campaign to regions, but also to topics. The first topic: Female Founders. <\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n
