Best practices for successful internationalization

International expansion is not always easy. At the International Stage of our partner RuhrIHK on October 28, you will get exclusive insights from founders who have already gone this way.

International duets

In addition to start-ups that have successfully made their way abroad and talk about their motivation and the ups and downs of internationalization, we welcome representatives of the respective Chambers of Commerce Abroad (AHK), who know the ecosystem well and support regional start-ups in opening up new markets.
