"Germany's race to catch up in the startup world.
Originally shared by Wayne Radinsky
"Germany's race to catch up in the startup world. Although it is a business powerhouse, Germany's economy is dominated by pre-internet companies." "Their goal, Nikolai Ensslen and Andrija Feher say, is to make 'Synapticon inside' as self-evident for robotics as 'Intel inside' is for computers."
"About 77,000 people are employed full-time in Berlin's digital sector. A significant portion of them, about 5,000 people, work at one of online retailer Zalando's Berlin locations.' 'It is possible that Zalando will graduate to the blue-chip German Stock Index, or DAX, in the foreseeable future. If it did, it would be the first DAX company with its headquarters in Berlin -- and the first from the Internet era."
"UnternehmerTUM, which is associated with the Technical University of Munich, is intended to provide young entrepreneurs with support from the moment they found their companies to when they go public."
"Makerspace is 'Germany's largest publicly accessible high-tech prototype workshop,' ideal for current and future startup founders. Unlike many of their counterparts in Berlin, most of the entrepreneurs in Munich are working on products linking hardware and software."
