The Ultimate Startup Guide: Berlin

Julia Wytrazek

Tech & Entrepreneurship Editor

In recent years, Berlin has emerged as a powerful international startup and tech hub. With its green parks, relatively low cost-of-living, and one of the fastest-growing startup scenes in the world, the city is an exciting and inspiring base for entrepreneurs, startups and innovators. Here, we bring you an exclusive excerpt from creative content and publishing company Startup Guide’s newest book release and ultimate guide to the city: Startup Guide Berlin Vol.4 . [dropcap]B[/dropcap]erlin’s been described as the city that’s always becoming and never being, and it’s certainly had a busy few decades. In the time since East and West Germany reunited in 1990, Berlin’s become a political powerhouse, an artistic hub and a nightlife mecca—and, most recently, one of Europe’s most vibrant tech and entrepreneurial ecosystems. The city’s central location makes it a perfect jumping-off point if your company dreams of someday conquering Europe, and its high quality of life and relaxed atmosphere means you’ll have fun along the way. Silicon Valley may have more money, but David Bowie never had a San Francisco period.

Before you come

Germany is known for its bureaucracy, and it’s a reputation that’s well earned. To avoid running into stress once you’re in the country, you’ll want to check off a few boxes before you arrive. First, you’ll want to start looking for apartments. Places are scarce in some of Berlin’s trendier neighborhoods, but you’ll need a permanent address to get started on all your other paperwork—and you’ve got a lot of paperwork ahead of you. If you’re planning on staying in Germany long-term, you’ll need an address to register at one of Berlin’s Bürgerämter (municipal administrative offices) within two weeks of arriving. If you’re subletting or living with a friend, you can use that residence with your landlord’s written permission. (Pro tip: you can go to any Bürgeramt in the city, not just the one in your neighborhood; and you can often find an appointment much earlier if you’re willing to take a half-hour trip to one of the less frequented offices in the suburbs.) You’ll also want to make sure you have health insurance that meets German requirements. Whether you go with the public system or a private provider, you’ll need to show a current policy when you apply for your visa.

Cost of living

Berlin’s unofficial motto is “ arm aber sexy ” (“poor but sexy”), and although the city has become more expensive recently, it’s still relatively cheap compared to other major European cities. Many Berliners live in shared flats, and you can usually find a room in one for no more than €600, including utilities. You’ll pay more for your own space, but there are still nice single-room apartments in popular neighborhoods for under €800. A meal in an average casual restaurant shouldn’t set you back more than €15, and you can get groceries for about €50 per week. A monthly travel pass that covers all public transportation within the city (though not some of the further-flung suburbs) will cost you about €80. Berlin also has a thriving bike culture if you’d prefer to cycle. All told, you can live quite comfortably on €1,200 per month, and downright decadently on €1,500 or more. Keep in mind, though, that while German taxes aren’t as high as, say, Scandinavian taxes, you should expect to pay a significant portion of your income—up to 50 percent if you’re a high earner. And you’re legally obligated to have health insurance, which can add another €300 per month if you’re paying for yourself.

Renting an apartment

Shared flats—called Wohngemeinschaften , or WG (pronounced “vay-gay” or “veh-geh”) for short—are popular in Berlin, and you’ll find many people well into their thirties who still live with roommates. You can often find a WG room for €300 to €600 per month. Rooms are listed on popular platforms like wg-gesucht.de or in Facebook groups such as Housing BERLIN or Wohnung und WG Berlin. You may have to go a dreaded “WG casting call,” however, to see if you’re a good fit. Be prepared for something a bit like a job interview, except you may be asked about your cleanliness, music tastes, and cooking skills. If you’d prefer your own place, you have two options: Many Berliners live as Untermieter (subletters) with arrangements varying in formality—and legality. You can often find a good deal if you don’t mind moving again when your landlord needs the apartment back. The alternative is to rent or buy your own flat, but you might face a few hurdles if you’re not German. The local real estate market can be confusing and difficult to navigate for non-German speakers, and you’ll need to produce a Schufa , a kind of credit check, before most landlords will consider you—and that can be tricky without a domestic financial record. But don’t feel overwhelmed; there are many Berlin realtors who specialize in working with foreigners and who can help you find and be approved for your dream home.

Finding a coworking space

Berlin has a thriving ecosystem of digital nomads, and there are clusters of coworking spaces in several parts of the city. St. Oberholz near Rosenthaler Platz in Mitte has become a hub of Berlin’s startup scene, and just one stop away in Prenzlauerberg is Factory Berlin, a coworking space and incubator. Kreuzberg is home to the Berlin branch of the renowned betahaus, and the Agora Collective is in Neukölln, the center of Berlin’s hipster artist and student scene. There are coffee shops all over the city, and reliable WiFi available nearly everywhere. Note, however, that many cafes don’t allow computers on weekends.

Visas and work permits

If you’re not from the EU, you’ll need a permit to work or stay in the country at all for longer than ninety days. Fortunately, Germany has been taking steps to make its visa process more accessible, in part to foster the startup scene. And while it can be tedious, it isn’t that difficult. If you’re working for a company that’s willing to sponsor you (or moving to Germany to take a job you’ve been offered), you’ll need a contract or letter of intent from your employer specifying your start date. Freelancers need to produce a business plan showing your sources of income and your ability to support yourself, along with recommendations from clients attesting to your ability to find work. Ideally, you’ll also have offers from prospective clients in Germany. In addition, you’ll need to show proof of a current health insurance plan, a Meldung (registration of your living address), and an open bank account in Germany, along with any statements that show savings abroad. You can apply for a visa at a German consulate or embassy abroad, or at one of the Ausländerbehörden (foreigners registration offices) in Germany.

Starting a company

If you’re looking to work as a freelancer, starting a company is easy. Once you’ve got your freelance visa, simply visit the Finanzamt (tax office) and fill out a form for your tax number. One thing to keep in mind, though: if you plan to make over €17,500 per year as a freelancer, you must charge your clients Mehrwertsteuer (value-added tax) and pass it along to the government. Your tax adviser will help with this. To found an LLC (called a “GmbH” in Germany), you just need to show a notarized agreement between the various shareholders and investment capital of €25,000. Then you can enter your company into the Handelsregister (commercial register). You might also like: In Conversation With Hessam Lavi on Berlin’s Startup Industry

Hi, I’m Cheryl. My mission is to help you move to Berlin and find work.

A Canadian in Berlin for 10+ years, I have the unique experience of moving to Berlin – not once, but twice. During my time in Berlin, I’ve had five different visas and worked as both a freelancer and a permanent employee for   numerous   Berlin companies. I even managed to find a new job during the pandemic  and again in 2023, during Germany’s  recession and massive layoffs in tech. 

My day job has involved work as a hiring manager, overseeing the recruitment of countless people, as well as a team coach helping teams and individuals work better and find happiness in their careers. Through my side projects, I’ve also shared my personal experiences by publishing a series of helpful blog posts, creating a thriving community of job seekers, and hosting events to help people find work in Berlin. In 2021, I decided to put my coaching and recruiting talents to use by creating The Berlin Life, bringing my existing content and community together in one spot.

The combination of my personal and professional experience means I know  exactly  what it takes to move to Berlin and find work.

Berlin remains one of Europe’s starriest tech hubs, with Atomico’s 2021 State of European Tech report ranking the city second only to London in capital investment, after its startups collectively raised $7.1 billion (roughly €7.3 billion) in 2021 alone. It’s been a constant upward trajectory too, with investment increasing 150 percent year-on-year since 2017.

“We are finally reaping the fruits from an ecosystem that was slow in developing,” says Bettine Schmitz, angel investor and founder of Auxxo , a VC fund that focuses on female founders. “Now we have a solid base of angels, investors, and scaled startups that are churning out experienced future founders or C-levels.” With many major valuations, such as N26 and Contentful , and new investors on the scene, Berlin is more vibrant than ever.

Julien Fredonie, head of strategic venture partnerships in Europe and Africa for Honda’s Xcelerator program, notes Berlin’s transition from an ecommerce and app powerhouse to a serious deeptech hub: Think hardware, AI, Web3, space, new materials, energy, and biotech. “Berlin is becoming a leading climate-tech hub in Europe,” he says. “It’s attracting global talent, with a nice quality of living and international mindset.”

A pioneer in lab-grown cheese (which actually tastes good), Formo was founded by Raffael Wohlgensinger and Britta Winterberg in 2019 and became Europe’s first cellular agriculture company by using milk proteins to produce animal-free dairy products. “Through precision fermentation, our rewired microorganisms make nature-identical dairy ingredients, reducing the need for industrial dairy and removing some of the most damaging elements of our food system,” says Wohlgensinger. Lionheart Ventures, Happiness Capital, and Albert Wenger pitched in to raise €42 million —the largest ever venture funding round in European foodtech. Now, Formo’s focus is on scaling production at its microorganism dairies, bringing products to market by 2023, and, by 2030, replacing 10 percent of Europe’s dairy consumption. “Precision fermentation is used to make highly specialized compounds, not bulk ingredients like milk, so we’re investing in large facilities to brew milk on a big scale,” says Wohlgensinger. Taste remains its north star—Formo is working with Michelin-starred chef Ricky Saward to develop European specialities such as mozzarella and ricotta. formo.bio

Sarah Bechstein cofounder of FORMEL Skin a digital platform for dermatologists.

Sarah Bechstein’s desire to carve out a career in dermatology began with the severe acne she experienced in her teens. While studying at the prestigious training hospital Charité Berlin, one of her professors treated her acne flareup with compounded medicine, which combines two or more drugs for a more personalized treatment. “I knew that this was the kind of treatment I wanted to offer to my patients,” says Bechstein. “When the liberalization of telemedicine happened, I saw it was my chance to make a difference in this broken system.” With cofounders Florian Semler and Anton Kononov, Bechstein launched FORMEL Skin in June 2020, a digital platform for dermatologists to deliver faster diagnoses for patients with chronic skin conditions. Through a questionnaire and photo submission, experts then formulate a personalized treatment plan which is adjusted through regular check-ins. It has offered 150,000 treatments across Germany and Switzerland , with plans to expand outside Europe soon. Rates start at around €50 for a monthly subscription, and it’s raised €36 million to date from Singular, Heal Capital, and Vorwerk Ventures. formelskin.de

With the title of Germany’s first “green unicorn ” after having secured €150 million from tech investor Softbank in October 2021, Enpal was established in 2017 and is now Germany’s largest provider of solar solutions, with over 12,000 homeowners on its books. Its proprietary AI software plans the solar installation in seconds, and a team of Enpal installers fit the photovoltaic panels on roofs. With a subscription model starting at €49 a month to pay for panel leasing and usage, Enpal solves many of the pain points of solar energy adoption, from bureaucracy of installation to high upfront costs. The Enpal Academy trains future solar system installers, and employees get stuck in too, with 400 of the 1,000 staff base trained and active in installation. Founders Jochen Ziervogel, Mario Kohle, and Viktor Wingert are set on making renewable energy accessible to all, both domestically and abroad, and aim to create an Enpal customer network to share energy for electricity, mobility, and heating. enpal.de

Speeding toward unicorn status, Moss has been valued at over $500 million less than two and a half years after its early 2019 launch, with the latest funding led by Tiger Global Management and A-Star. It offers corporate credit cards that enable small- and medium-size businesses (SMBs) to track their spending. Transactions show up instantly in the Moss dashboards, and employees can generate virtual cards for online payments. Having issued 20,000 cards and processed 250,000 transactions in Germany and the Netherlands, founders Ante Spittler, Anton Rummel, Ferdinand Meyer, and Stephan Haslebacher are now taking the Moss model to the UK. getmoss.com

Founded in 2018, Stenon is doing away with the time suck of sending soil samples to labs for testing, helping farmers to make faster and more efficient decisions on crop cultivation. The startup makes the portable FarmLab soil analysis tool, which uses sensors to instantly generate parameters that include soil temperature, moisture, nutrient content, and pH value. “Soil data is a critical piece to drive better decisions, driving up productivity while working sustainably,” says founder Dominic Roth. “Stenon is in the leading position for providing high-quality, real-time soil data, and aims not just to offer high return-on-investment solutions to growers, but to build out the global soil data layer for improvement of the food system.” It is used by several hundred farmers in the German-speaking region, and will launch in the UK and California next year. Stenon has raised over $26.8 million . stenon.io

Raging talent wars for knowledge workers mean that companies today are desperately looking for ways to attract and retain the best employees, thus creating an important power shift between employers and employees. The only Pan-European fertility benefits platform of its kind, Apryl enables companies to support employees on their path to parenthood. Employee benefits include subsidies for care navigation, consultations, access to clinics and treatments such as egg and sperm freezing, IVF, adoption, and surrogacy. It’s raised $4.3 million. apryl.co

Raffael Wohlgensinger founder and CEO of Formo.

The Buy Now, Pay Later model is fast infiltrating the B2B sector, and Mondu is Germany’s star entrant into the space. Established in 2021 by Gil Danziger, Malte Huffmann, and Philipp Povel, it aims to spread out startup finances and offer flexible payment methods with net terms of 30, 60, or 90 days , and has seen thousand of businesses use its platform, spanning cleaning, beauty, and manufacturing industries .

Vay users can order a KIA Niro electric vehicle, remote-controlled by a human “teledriver,” and have it driven directly to their location. When they’ve driven themselves to their destination, they just get out and alert the teledriver, who takes over again and drives the car away. Founded by ​​Thomas von der Ohe, Fabrizio Scelsi, and Bogdan Djukic in 2018, it raised $95 million in Series B funding in late 2021, led by investors Kinnevik, Coatue, and Eurazeo, with La Famiglia and Creandum continuing their support. Vay will launch its fleet of remote-operated cars in Hamburg , and investors claim the service could be 60 percent cheaper than Uber . Vay also wants to expand from the driverless-rental-meets-taxi service into logistics and deliveries. vay.io

Pile’s simple API platform enables existing fintechs, neobanks, and startups to integrate crypto through wallets or trading into their offering, dealing with the legal intricacies of smart contracts in the background. The goal is to make it easier and smoother for fintechs to diversify their own products, lowering acquisition costs and boosting customer loyalty. Founded in May 2022, it’s already raised €2.8 million in a pre-seed funding round with investors including Anthemis’ Female Innovators Lab, Barclays, and Pitch founder Christian Reber. After departing from Penta, the B2B bank she cofounded, founder Jessica Holzbach has big plans for Pile: Expand the founding team from four to 12, trial faster international payment gateways, and develop tools to pay salaries in crypto. pile.capital

Founded by Isabel Poppek and Nils Vollmer in 2020, Alpas’ procurement software helps mid-to-large manufacturing companies find, compare, and manage suppliers. For the moment, it is focused on industrial companies that buy machine and electrical parts, making the sourcing at the start of the value chain more transparent. By applying AI, the software is 10 times faster than existing players, according to the founders, and streamlines the identification, comparison, and management of existing and previously unknown suppliers. On the hunt for a radiator cooling fan, for example, you could dive into detailed supplier profiles, get an automated quote to match against others, and anticipate potential supplier risks—saving up to 40 percent of procurement costs. The Y Combinator alumni counts German conglomerate BASF, the Swiss Federal Railways AG, and Landis+Gyr among its clients. With investment from venture capitalist Ann-Kristin Achleitne and former CTO of Spotify Andreas Ehn, it has raised $2.2 million to date . alpas.ai

10 early-stage Berlin-based startups to have your eye on 2021 and beyond

Anto Guarin

Berlin is known for its history, its many world-renowned museums, and its culture-rich and creative environment. As if that wasn’t enough, the city is also one of the most active and strong tech ecosystems and made it to spot number 2 in our annual ranking of Europe’s biggest startup hubs .

The German capital is home to super active VCs like Project A, Rocket Internet and Point Nine; hubs and organisations like Betahaus and Factory Berlin; globally-facing accelerators like Techstars; and popular events like Tech Open Air (TOA). In addition, success stories like Soundcloud, Babbel, and Zalando have made Berlin one of the world’s most attractive cities to build a fast-growing tech company.

For today’s list, we took into consideration exceptionally promising startups founded between 2019-2021, as well as aspects such as team size, funding, growth rate, innovation, and market size. Although there are many startups killing it this year, here’s our selection of 10 Berlin-based startups to follow in 2021 and beyond:

Request for proposals: Startup Ecosystem Event Berlin

The main objective of this call is to contract an experienced European event-organizer within the mobility startup ecosystem to organise a startup ecosystem event in Berlin, Germany, during the 2024. The aim of the event is to introduce EITUM to the Berlin startup ecosystem and to start building a local network of startups, investors, corporates, and decision-makers, to connect them to EITUM’s activity. The Berlin startup ecosystem is amongst the top ecosystems in Europe and as such, EITUM is interested to improve its outreach to this ecosystem and to attract more players from this ecosystem to its network.

A diverse, well-functioning and dynamic ecosystem is crucial for startup growth. Mobility startups are highly dependent on public and private funding, in collaborations with cities and other decision-makers, and in pan-European, rather than local, support. In EIT UM we believe that to best fulfil our mission of supporting European startups, and to accelerate innovative transformation in the European mobility ecosystem, we must engage, collaborate, and support leading local startup ecosystems and to create bridges between those ecosystems to the EU and between one another.

The event subject to this call will be the launching point of the Berlin startup ecosystem intervention at EITUM and as such will bring together important payers in the ecosystem and will include PR and media publications which will communicate EITUM’s message to its target audience.

Check the Reqest for Proposals here .

To apply, please send the completed and signed  Tender´s Submission and Declaration Form .

Deadline for submissions: 16 March 2024 at 16:00h (CET)
