Are you ready for your startup – and is your idea ready for the market?
Then get it into training!
In the StartUp-Workout, you will develop your business idea step by step into a viable business concept. In each workout, we introduce you to key methods that you can apply directly to your own idea. This way, you don’t just stay in the thinking phase – you actually start doing.
Practical input from experienced speakers, honest feedback from the group, and space for your questions will help you move your project forward in a focused way.
All workouts take place on-site at startup-relevant locations. This way, you will get to know the startup ecosystem in Bremen first-hand.
As the workshops build on each other, participation in all sessions is expected. The program is aimed at aspiring founders with a concrete idea and will be conducted in German.
Places are limited. Join us and take your startup to the next level!
