Startup Camp Lausitz

Qualified business coaches support you in turning your idea into a finished business concept using the Business Model Canvas. Important contacts will be made at networking events and you will get to know Lusatia as a business location on excursions.

Depending on your level of knowledge, you will be taught key basic entrepreneurial skills or gaps in your specialist knowledge will be closed in order to implement your concept in the region, whether as a start-up or within an existing company.

Your idea will become even more sophisticated in discussions with other participants. Get to know each other and inspire   each other in the workshop, during the coffee break or relaxing at the barbecue after work.

We bring role models, mentors and important contacts to the camp: we invite experienced entrepreneurs, business promoters, funders, representatives of the Chamber of Industry and Commerce and other multipliers to talks, fireside chats and open networking evenings. In this way, you can lay the foundations for future partnerships.

And the venues will get you out of your daily routine, clear your head for new ideas and show you the best sides of Lusatia.
