There are 1000 good reasons...to create a start-up! And many of these reasons are at home in Braunschweig. On these pages, we would like to familiarise you with some of them. Under the motto Braunschweig – #MitGründen, we invite you to allow yourself to be convinced of the reasons for founding a start-up in the Lion City and to use your ideas to shape the entrepreneurial future of Braunschweig.
... because in the start-up network Gründungsnetzwerk Braunschweig, more than 20 consulting facilities offer comprehensive all-round support for all questions concerning business start-ups.
... because Braunschweig has the highest proportion of IT employees in the whole of Northern Germany > an important location factor as regards digitisation.
... because here there are real “start-up locations” in which you and your team can find room to unfold and simultaneously meet potential supporters and fellow combatants: from co-working spaces to the Protohaus to your first own business rooms in the Technology Park.
... because with the mobility cluster at the Research Airport, Braunschweig counts among the most important centres of European mobility research > For this reason, the State of Lower Saxony also made Braunschweig the location of the start-up centre Mobilität und Innovation (MO.IN).
... because in Braunschweig, you will be provided with support: from the idea development through to the growth phase.
... because Braunschweig, as the centre of one of the most research-intensive regions in Europe, is a hotspot for research, development and innovation.
... because Braunschweig has a strong cultural and creative scene > led by the KreativRegion association and the HBK - the only university for fine arts in Lower Saxony.
... because Braunschweig and the region have strong universities which foster the spirit of entrepreneurship and intensively support spin-offs.
... because in the city of short distances, the answer to (almost) all of your questions is never far away (sorry, but you will have to sort out that thing with true love yourself).
... because you will nevertheless still find a lot of love here - in the form of creative minds, designers, IT and engineering nerds, lateral thinkers and pioneers, all of whom love to develop new ideas and share information on mutual projects.
Since 1986, more than 150 successful start-up stories have begun in the municipal technology park. Low rents, a high-speed connection to the German Research Network (DFN) and a creative environment in Braunschweig's Gründerquartier (“Start-Up Quarter”) make the Technology Park the ideal place for the first few years of entrepreneurship.
The Mobility and Innovation Start-up Centre (MO.IN) is one of eight start-up centres supported by the State of Lower Saxony. It is aimed at innovative start-ups in the early stages of their foundation and provides professional coaching to help you develop your business model to market maturity.
The Incubator for Growth and Innovation (W.IN for short) starts in the growth phase. Through the involvement of experienced entrepreneurs, you will find contact to mentors, strategic partners and valuable advisors. Just like MO.IN, W.IN also accommodates you in the innovative environment of the Technology Park.
The Innovation Wing offers young and small companies from the aerospace and traffic engineering industries optimal working conditions in an innovative environment in direct proximity to Braunschweig Research Airport. Here there are high-quality office spaces with glass fibre connections - on request also furnished. A meeting room and modern presentation technology are also available. In addition to start-ups, the Innovation Wing is also open to small companies and project partners of the scientific facilities at the research airport. In addition, individual workplaces can be rented.
On the premises of the traditional Rollei company, in cooperation with the Braunschweig Zukunft business development organisation, an area of approx. 1,500 square metres with various room sizes is available for business start-ups. In addition, after the successful start-up phase, the Rollei Centre offers young companies space on the same site as a future company location.
The Protohaus on Rebenring is an open high-tech workshop for technology enthusiasts, inventors, tinkerers, creative people, start-ups and young companies. On approx. 500 square meters, it offers state-of-the-art technology from woodworking to 3D printing to test ideas, produce prototypes and further develop them. The non-profit organization also offers workshops and courses. In addition, the Protohaus is a meeting place for the Braunschweig creative and start-up scene and regularly invites visitors to events all about founding and experimenting.
The start-up incubator at the TU Braunschweig offers coaching and consulting for spin-offs from the university. It is directly connected to the technology transfer office of the TU Braunschweig. Eight free office workplaces including modern office infrastructure are available in the foundation incubator.
The Entrepreneurship Hub supports students, alumni and scientific staff of Ostfalia University, TU Braunschweig and HBK Braunschweig who want to start their own business. The Entrepreneurship Hub offers an extensive range of teaching and information for those interested in starting a business at all three universities.
The TRAFO Hub is located in the Wichmannhallen, a former factory site that now radiates a unique loft atmosphere. As a digital hub, the TRAFO is a place of exchange between creatives, IT experts, start-ups and companies. Here, everything revolves around digitisation, knowledge transfer and the testing of new forms of cooperation in order to jointly design solutions for digital transformation.
The Torhaus below the Gaußberg in Braunschweig is a start-up café, event location and meeting place for the young start-up scene in Braunschweig and the region.

"Processing' means any operation or set of operations which is carried out with or without the aid of automated processes and which involves personal data. The term reaches far and covers practically every handling of data.
"Pseudonymisation' means the processing of personal data in such a way that the personal data can no longer be attributed to a specific data subject without the provision of additional information, provided that such additional information is kept separately and is subject to technical and organisational measures ensuring that the personal data are not attributed to an identified or identifiable natural person.

In the event that vital interests of the data subject or another natural person necessitate the processing of personal data, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. d GDPR serves as the legal basis.
The legal basis for the processing necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority entrusted to the controller is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. e GDPR.br /> The legal basis for the processing to safeguard our legitimate interests is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR.
The processing of data for purposes other than those for which they were collected shall be governed by the provisions of Art. 6 para. 4 GDPR.
The processing of special categories of data (pursuant to Art. 9 para. 1 GDPR) is governed by the provisions of Art. 9 para. 2 GDPR.
We take appropriate technical and organisational measures in accordance with the legal requirements, taking into account the state of the art, the implementation costs and the type, scope, circumstances and purposes of the processing as well as the different probability of occurrence and severity of the risk to the rights and freedoms of natural persons, in order to ensure a level of protection appropriate to the risk.
Measures shall include, in particular, ensuring the confidentiality, integrity and availability of data by controlling physical access to, access to, inputting, disclosure, securing and separation of data. In addition, we have established procedures to ensure that data subjects' rights are exercised, that data is deleted and that we react to data threats. Furthermore, we take the protection of personal data into account as early as the development or selection of hardware, software and processes, in accordance with the principle of data protection through technology design and through data protection-friendly default settings.
Insofar as we disclose data to other persons and companies (contract processors, jointly responsible persons or third parties) within the scope of our processing, transfer data to them or otherwise grant them access to the data, this shall only take place on the basis of legal permission (e.g. if a transfer of the data to third parties, such as payment service providers, is necessary for the fulfilment of the contract), users have consented, a legal obligation provides for this or on the basis of our legitimate interests (e.g. when using agents, web hosts, etc.).
Insofar as we disclose, transmit or otherwise grant access to data to other companies of our group of companies, this is done in particular for administrative purposes as a legitimate interest and beyond that on a basis corresponding to the legal requirements.
If we process data in a third country (i.e. outside the European Union (EU), the European Economic Area (EEA) or the Swiss Confederation) or if this is done in the context of the use of third party services or disclosure or transfer of data to other persons or companies, this only occurs if it is done to fulfil our (pre)contractual obligations, on the basis of your consent, a legal obligation or on the basis of our legitimate interests. Subject to legal or contractual permissions, we process or leave the data in a third country only if the legal requirements are met. This means that the processing takes place, for example, on the basis of special guarantees, such as the officially recognised determination of a data protection level corresponding to the EU (e.g. for the USA through the "Privacy Shield") or the observance of officially recognised special contractual obligations.
You have the right to request confirmation as to whether the data in question will be processed and to be informed of this data and to receive further information and a copy of the data in accordance with the provisions of the law.

With the following information we inform you about the contents of our newsletter as well as the registration, dispatch and statistical evaluation procedures and your rights of objection. By subscribing to our newsletter, you agree to the receipt and procedures described.
Content of the newsletter: We send newsletters, e-mails and other electronic notifications containing advertising information (hereinafter "newsletter") only with the consent of the recipient or a legal permission. Insofar as the contents of the newsletter are specifically described within the framework of registration, they are decisive for the consent of the user. In addition, our newsletters contain information about our services and us.
Double-Opt-In and logging: The registration to our newsletter takes place in a so-called Double-Opt-In procedure. This means that you will receive an e-mail after registration asking you to confirm your registration. This confirmation is necessary so that no one can register with other people's e-mail addresses. The registrations for the newsletter are logged in order to be able to document the registration process according to the legal requirements. This includes storing the login and confirmation times as well as the IP address. Likewise the changes of your data stored with the dispatch service provider are logged.
Registration data: To subscribe to the newsletter, it is sufficient to enter your e-mail address. Optionally we ask you to enter a name in order to address you personally in the newsletter.
The dispatch of the newsletter and the performance measurement associated with it are based on the consent of the recipients pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a, Art. 7 GDPR in conjunction with § 7 para. 2 no. 3 UWG or, if consent is not required, on our legitimate interests in direct marketing pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 as per f. GDPR in conjunction with § Section 7 (3) UWG.
The registration procedure is recorded on the basis of our legitimate interests pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. We are interested in providing a user-friendly and secure newsletter system that serves our business interests, meets users' expectations, and allows us to provide evidence of consent.
Cancellation/revocation - You can cancel the receipt of our newsletter at any time, i.e. revoke your consent. You will find a link to cancel the newsletter at the end of each newsletter. We may store the unsubscribed email addresses for up to three years based on our legitimate interests before deleting them to provide evidence of prior consent. The processing of these data is limited to the purpose of a possible defence against claims. An individual deletion request is possible at any time, provided that the former existence of a consent is confirmed at the same time.
The delivery service provider can use the recipient's data in pseudonymous form, i.e. without allocation to a user, to optimise or improve its own services, e.g. for technical optimisation of the delivery and presentation of the newsletter or for statistical purposes. However, the delivery service provider does not use the data of our newsletter recipients to write to them itself or to pass the data on to third parties.
The newsletters contain a so-called "web-beacon", i.e. a file the size of a pixel, which is retrieved from our server when the newsletter is opened or, if we use a delivery service provider, from its server. Within the scope of this retrieval, technical information such as information about the browser and your system, as well as your IP address and time of retrieval are initially collected.
This information is used for the technical improvement of the services on the basis of technical data or target groups and their reading behaviour on the basis of their retrieval points (which can be determined with the help of the IP address) or access times. Statistical surveys also include determining whether newsletters are opened, when they are opened and which links are clicked. It is technically possible to assign this information to individual newsletter recipients, however it is neither our endeavour nor, if used, that of the delivery service provider to observe individual users. The evaluations serve us much more to recognize the reading habits of our users and to adapt our content to them or to send different content according to the interests of our users.
A separate revocation of the performance measurement is unfortunately not possible, in such a case the entire newsletter subscription must be cancelled.
The hosting services used by us serve the provision of the following services: Infrastructure and platform services, computing capacity, storage space and database services, e-mail dispatch, security services and technical maintenance services which we use for the purpose of operating this online service.
Here we, or our hosting provider, process inventory data, contact data, content data, contract data, usage data, meta data and communication data of customers, interested parties and visitors to this online service on the basis of our legitimate interests in the efficient and secure provision of this online service in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR in conjunction with Art. 28 GDPR (conclusion of contract processing agreement).
We, and/or our hosting-provider, raise on the basis of our entitled interests in the sense of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f. GDPR data about each access to the server on which this service is located (so-called server log files). The access data includes the name of the website accessed, file, date and time of access, amount of data transferred, notification of successful access, browser type and version, the user's operating system, referrer URL (the previously visited page), IP address and the requesting provider.
Log file information is stored for security reasons (e.g. for the investigation of abuse or fraud) for a maximum period of 7 days and then deleted. Data, the further storage of which is necessary for evidence purposes, are excluded from deletion until the respective incident has been finally clarified.
Google is certified under the Privacy Shield Agreement and thereby offers a guarantee of compliance with European privacy laws (https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt000000001L5AAI&status=Active).
Google will use this information on our behalf to evaluate the use of our online services by users, to compile reports on the activities within this online service and to provide us with other services associated with the use of this online service and the Internet. Pseudonymous user profiles of the users can be created from the processed data.
We only use Google Analytics with IP anonymization enabled. This means that the IP address of the user is shortened by Google within member states of the European Union or in other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases is the full IP address transmitted to a Google server in the USA and shortened there.
Further information on the use of data by Google, setting and objection options can be found in Google's data protection declaration (https://policies.google.com/technologies/ads) and in the settings for the display of advertising by Google (https://adssettings.google.com/authenticated).
The personal data of the users will be deleted or anonymized after 14 months.
On the basis of our legitimate interests (i.e. interest in the analysis, optimisation and economic operation of our online offer in the sense of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f. GDPR), we make use of the services of Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA, ("Google").
Google is certified under the Privacy Shield Agreement, providing a guarantee of compliance with European data protection law. (https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt000000001L5AAI&status=Active).
We use the Google "AdWords" online marketing method to place ads on the Google advertising network (e.g. in search results, videos, websites, etc.) so that they are displayed to users who have a presumed interest in the ads. This allows us to display ads for and within our online offering in a more targeted manner in order to present users only with ads that potentially match their interests. If, for example, a user is shown ads for products in which he is interested on other online offers, this is referred to as "remarketing". For these purposes, when you visit our and other websites on which the Google Advertising Network is active, Google executes a Google code directly and incorporates (re)marketing tags (invisible graphics or code, also known as "web beacons") into the website. With their help, an individual cookie, i.e. a small file, is stored on the user's device (comparable technologies can also be used instead of cookies). In this file it is noted which websites the user visits, which contents he is interested in and which offers the user has clicked, furthermore technical information about the browser and operating system, referring websites, visiting time as well as further information about the use of the online offer.
Furthermore, we receive an individual "conversion cookie ". The information collected with the help of cookies is used by Google to compile conversion statistics for us. However, we only know the anonymous total number of users who clicked on our ad and were redirected to a page with a conversion tracking tag. However, we do not receive information that personally identifies users.
User data is processed pseudonymously within the Google advertising network. I.e. Google does not store and process the name or e-mail address of the user, but processes the relevant data cookie-related within pseudonymous user profiles. This means that, from Google's point of view, the ads are not administered and displayed for a specifically identified person, but for the cookie holder, regardless of who this cookie holder is. This does not apply if a user has expressly permitted Google to process the data without this pseudonymisation. The information collected about users is transmitted to Google and stored on Google's servers in the United States.
We maintain online presences within social networks and platforms in order to be able to communicate with customers, interested parties and users active there and to inform them about our services.
We would like to point out that user data may be processed outside the European Union. This may entail risks for users, e.g. by making it more difficult to enforce users' rights. With respect to US vendors certified under the Privacy Shield, we would like to point out that they are committed to complying with EU privacy standards.
Furthermore, user data is usually processed for market research and advertising purposes. For example, user profiles can be created on the basis of user behaviour and the resulting interests of users. The user profiles can in turn be used, for example, to place advertisements inside and outside the platforms which are presumed to correspond to the interests of the users. For these purposes, cookies are usually stored on the user's computer, in which the user's usage behaviour and interests are stored. Furthermore, data can be stored in the user profiles independently of the devices used by the users (especially if the users are members of the respective platforms and are logged in to them).
The processing of users' personal data is carried out on the basis of our legitimate interests in effective information for users and communication with users pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f. GDPR. If the users are requested by the respective providers of the platforms to give their consent to the aforementioned data processing, the legal basis for the processing is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a., Art. 7 GDPR.
For a detailed representation of the respective processing and the possibilities of objection (Opt-Out), we refer to the following linked information of the providers.
Also in the case of requests for information and the assertion of user rights, we point out that these can be asserted most effectively with the providers. Only the providers have access to the data of the users and can directly take appropriate measures and provide information. If you still need help, please do not hesitate to contact us.
Within the scope of our online offer, we use on the basis of our legitimate interests (i.e. interest in the analysis, optimisation and economic operation of our online offer within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f. GDPR) content or service offers from third parties in order to integrate their content and services, such as videos or fonts (hereinafter uniformly referred to as "content").
This always entails that the third-party providers of this content use the IP address of the user, since they would not be able to send the content to their browser without the IP address. The IP address is therefore required for the presentation of these contents. We strive to use only those contents, whose respective provides use the IP address only for the distribution of the contents. Third parties may also use so-called pixel tags (invisible graphics, also known as "web beacons") for statistical or marketing purposes. The "pixel tags" can be used to evaluate information such as visitor traffic on the pages of this website. The pseudonymous information may also be stored in cookies on the user's device and may include technical information about the browser and operating system, referring websites, visit times and other information about the use of our website, and may be linked to such information from other sources.
