Excellent start-up support 

We are officially excellent: at the beginning of 2019, the NRW Ministry of Economics named us an Excellence Start-up Center (ESC). We are using the associated funding to further expand our activities and offerings. In this way, we can provide even better support for more prospective founders - and help even more good ideas to achieve entrepreneurial success.
