Innovation meets transformation

Hamburg has always been a place for people who dare to try new things—long before the word startup became a buzzword. Many inventions we take for granted today originated right here: from chip cards and water wings to adhesive tape, band‑aids, baby pacifiers, sparklers, and even dynamite.

That spirit of invention still defines the city. It makes Hamburg a powerful hub for innovative entrepreneurship and a place where ideas can quickly turn into reality. A tightly connected ecosystem of research institutions, businesses, and creative minds helps founders push their projects forward and gain visibility in Hamburg’s thriving startup scene.
