It does not always have to be Berlin

Start-up scene in Frankfurt: Perfect for which companies?

Young companies – especially in the FiTech sector – benefit above all from the strongly growing ecosystem. Every week, events, meetups or founder evenings offer the possibility to network, to pitch and to present themselves. Especially at Between the towers, Accelator Frankfurt or Main Incubator the classic sector of investors, economy and science meet young start-ups. Even though Berlin is far ahead of the Rhine-Main region start-ups have a good chance to settle down here, because of the proximity to several universities.

Tips for founders
Which advice would Dr. Ricco Deutscher give to other founders? Do not despair of financial crises – they form part of it. If you want to be successful in the SaaS business, you should not try to be profitable to early. You should rather focus on investing in scalable sales volume. That is absolutely necessary in a strongly growing market, in order to prevent others, who dare to do or to invest more, from overtaking.
