Entering the German Market

THIS IS A 2G+ EVENT*

Over the past two decades, Germany has become a thriving market for business – especially with the recent boost from Brexit.

Its strong economy, large consumer market and consistent levels of growth make Germany a sturdy foothold for entering the EU or growing your existing presence.

However, entering the German market presents unique challenges which can be hard to navigate for foreign businesses, such as:

• Administrative hurdle from setting up a business to tax laws to regulations
• Cultural clashes from misunderstandings of business landscape and the culture
• Robust employee protections and high cost of labour

During this event, we invite early and late stage startups to join us onstage to discuss their experiences of entering the German market, the challenges of German market entry which are underestimated and how they managed to overcome them.
