Invest in Berlin

BERLIN - THE PLACE TO INVEST.

What makes a startup ecosystem truly thrive?   At Smart City Expo World Congress Barcelona, Berlin is being recognised as the "Best Community-Driven Ecosystem in the EU" by StartupBlink.   The recognition highlights what has long been one of Berlin’s greatest strengths: a collaborative innovation culture that connects startups, investors, corporates, research institutions and the public sector to turn ideas into impact.   On behalf of the Berlin Senate Department for Economic Affairs, Energy and Public Enterprises (Senatsverwaltung für Wirtschaft, Energie und Betriebe), Wolfgang Korek, Head of Energy Technology Department at Berlin Partner für Wirtschaft und Technologie GmbH, accepted the award during the event's physical handover.   Beyond the award stage, Wolfgang Korek also joined an international panel discussion on the future of cities, exploring how emerging technologies, sustainable innovation and strong startup ecosystems can help build more resilient and liveable urban environments.   The combination of recognition and dialogue reflects Berlin’s role as a city where innovation does not happen in isolation, but through partnership, openness and a shared ambition to shape the future. For founders, investors and innovators looking to grow in Europe, Berlin continues to demonstrate the power of a community-driven ecosystem.   ➡️ Discover why Berlin continues to be one of Europe’s most dynamic locations for innovation and entrepreneurship: https://invest-in.berlin/ Startup Berlin Berlin Partner Unit for Energy | Environment | Smart City #BerlinPartner #SmartCityExpo #StartupEcosystem #BerlinInnovation #FutureCities
