Berlin-BrandenBurg: Start-up Capital and digital MetropoliS
Entrepreneurs looking to start a company in the digital sector are flocking to Berlin—and this positive trend picked up even more speed in the past twelve months. Until recently, the capital region was well-known as Germany’s creative hub, but now it’s also become the nation’s digital start-up capital. More new companies are founded here—in particular in the field of social and interactive media—than anywhere else in Germany. Entrepreneurs continue to be spurred on by the region’s creative climate and comparably affordable office space, and more and more national and international investors are interested in young Berlin-based firms. American actor Ashton Kutcher is only one of the many prominent personalities participating in Berlin-based start-ups, in his case the music service SoundCloud, the virtual opin-ion market Amen and Gidsy, a platform on which users can offer special events.A number of leading international digital events also enrich the capital’s digital landscape, such as the Berlin Web Week including the digital conferences re:publica and NEXT (www.berlinwebweek.de), the DGT – Germa-ny’s leading Game Development Event (www.deutsche-gamestage.de), the animago AWARDs for digital excel-lence (www.animago.com) and the MEDiENWoChE@iFA with its international Media Convention (www.medien-woche.de).
