Bringing crafts and startups together

Georg Raess, Innovation Consultant at the Chamber of Crafts and Trades in Munich, is looking forward to the networking event and explains the intention of the event on behalf of the Chamber of Crafts and Trades:

"With "Startup Meets Crafts," we want, first, to introduce craftspeople to exciting startup ideas. Second, to inspire the craft industry to think about new business models. And third, we want to draw attention to each other between crafts and startups, whether as clients and customers or as cooperation partners, for example, for prototype construction."

Conversely, “Startup meets Crafts” can also be of interest to entrepreneurs from the startup ecosystem who are looking for cooperation partners or customers from the craft sector.

The whole program can be viewed here. Participation is free, but registration is requested, as the number of participants is limited.
