"STARTUPS are the rockets of the economy. They launch to bring about change at great speed. In doing so, they drive innovation, ensure a secure future and greater prosperity in Lower Saxony."

Every rocket needs three things to take off: a motivated crew, fuel, and a solid platform.

The crew consists of the founders; they build the rocket and steer it into new dimensions.

The fuel is the ideas and know-how of the minds involved, and the necessary capital, which we provide in educational and research institutions as well as startup centers, as well as the necessary capital that we make available through startup funding.

The platform is the startup ecosystem that we help shape and constantly expand.

We are the central point of contact for the startup community in Lower Saxony. We connect, shape, and promote. In doing so, we act with foresight and according to strong values. For more freedom, creativity, and diversity in the startup world, we want to launch ideas that will have a lasting impact on society – and make it easier for founders in Lower Saxony.

In every step we follow our guiding principle: We want to “make things easy” .
