SAP is Europes most valuable tech corporation – inspiring the whole region. But who could be the next billion-dollar tech unicorn? Right now startups and investors focus very much on Berlin, Munich and Cologne, widely ignoring that the Rhine-Neckar region offers perfect conditions for entrepreneurship and innovation. How does that come? What needs to be changed?

We are very happy to announce our first online event on May 4th! Together with Florian Reuter, Jacqueline Yildirim, Rolf Schumann, Dr. Danyal Bayaz, Christian Siegele, Claus von Riegen and Sarah Heuberger we will discuss how Baden-Württemberg could become the next hotspot for startups.
