Startup Incubator Berlin under new leadership.

The founding center of the Berlin School of Economics and Law now has a dual leadership with Marvin Göldner and Matthias Grytzka. The areas of entrepreneurship, startup support, and technology transfer are being strengthened.

Berlin, January 28, 2022. With Marvin Göldner and Matthias Grytzka, two experienced startup coaches are taking over the leadership of the Startup Incubator Berlin at the Berlin School of Economics and Law (HWR Berlin). Since January 2022, they have been responsible for the entire operational management of the founding center, which provides entrepreneurship-minded students with the framework, networks, and funding they need to develop their ideas through to market-ready prototypes.

The strategic concept development and funding acquisition for HWR Berlin will also be strengthened, with the aim of further advancing HWR Berlin’s profile as an entrepreneurial university.

Marvin Göldner

“I personally prepared a startup at an incubator in Munich and know from my own experience what is important for startups in the early stage. I am excited about the opportunities we can offer to those interested in founding a company and startup teams at the SIB. I look forward to further developing the university’s founding center and unlocking new growth potential with our great team. As an Innovation & Strategy Developer, I want to optimize coaching methods so that young startups at the SIB can reach the market faster.”

Matthias Grytzka

“I have been working at the SIB for almost five years and helped shape the HWR founding center at the A32 Entrepreneurs Forum Berlin in Siemensstadt. We provide young startup teams with an attractive co-working space, a Design Thinking Lab, and a lab for developing app applications, a prototyping workshop, and above all coaching and financial support. That is simply wonderful. I am looking forward to the ever-new creative startup teams for whose success we are laying the foundation here. Innovation is not a coincidence.”

The Startup Incubator Berlin, the founding center of the Berlin School of Economics and Law, is a workshop and experimentation space for those interested in starting a business. Here, ideas, concepts, and the development of prototypes are supported, and founders and potential business partners are connected. It is a place of creativity, encounter, and exchange. With the Berlin Startup Scholarship and the EXIST scholarship program, founders are financially supported. The incubator is aimed at everyone who is just at the beginning of their founding idea as well as those who are already in the active founding phase.
