Just quickly save the world – your start-up in 60 minutes
Workshop

Broken bus connections? Not enough good meeting places? Plastic everywhere? If something in everyday life annoys you, you have two options: complain – or take action. In this 60-minute workshop, you will develop your own idea with others on how to solve a real problem by starting a project. You will be supported by young entrepreneurs who know how to turn a challenge into a strong idea. At the end, you will present your solution idea in a pitch – straightforward and with lots of creativity. You don't need any prior knowledge – just the desire to make a difference. Whether you want to start a business later or not: Here you can try out how change can start with you.
We have a limited number of spots available for this workshop. So it's best to arrive 10 minutes early at the GenNow Workshop tent on Schlossteich Island! Admission is on a first-come, first-served basis.
