"moonshots & moneten" event invites start-up scene to Paderborn
An event with charisma: an important meeting for the German start-up scene is coming up in Paderborn. garage33, the start-up centre of Paderborn University, is organising Paderborn's first Start-up Summit under the title "moonshots & moneten" from 15 to 16 February 2024. The entire start-up community – consisting of founders, entrepreneurs and investors – is invited to get to know the up-and-coming start-up region of East Westphalia-Lippe, to exchange information about the latest innovations and to network. Various lectures, workshops and start-up pitches are planned in front of an expert audience at the new Start-up Campus at Paderborn University. Interested parties can register for tickets on the event website.
Two-day event programme
Renowned speakers will share their experiences on the topic of start-up founding on three stages or will have their say in exciting panel discussions on various specialist topics. Regional start-up founders from garage33 will tell their personal "local hero stories" and aspiring start-up teams will have the opportunity to network with established entrepreneurs and investors and to initiate investments at the "OWL Start-up Pitch". At the "GreenTech Pitch", start-up teams from the six Excellence Start-up Centres in NRW will be on stage, focusing on forward-looking ideas and innovations in the field of climate protection and resource efficiency. The organisers are also looking forward to a visit from Mona Neubaur, Minister for Economic Affairs, Industry, Climate Protection and Energy and Deputy Minister President of North Rhine-Westphalia, on the second day of the event.
"We offer a forum for exchange that is unique for students and academics interested in starting a business. Thanks to our proximity to the University and modern research on the one hand, and our strong networking with the business community on the other, we in Paderborn open up opportunities for start-ups that can hardly be offered in this form elsewhere. This is precisely why we have now developed a visibility as a start-up location that extends far beyond our region," emphasises Prof. Dr. Sebastian Vogt, Managing Director of the Technology Transfer & Start-up Centre at Paderborn University (TecUp).
