We Unite Student Entrepreneurs

START Munich brings together a new generation of entrepreneurs and offers direct access to the startup world. Since its foundation in 2003, over 450 members have been active in our community. In our ranks we count the founders of successful start-ups such as Freeletics, IDnow, and Trade Republic.

But START Munich isn’t simply a hotspot for successful founders. It is also a place where you will find some of your best friends and where you will feel free to explore your potential. We will celebrate your successes and help you when things are tough.

Let's START. Together.

START Munich is the place where all parties of the Munich startup ecosystem come together – Startups, Founders, Investors, Universities and Students. We are fully student-led, university independent and students build the core of what we do. But without our own ecosystem consisting of startups, VCs, corporates and universities, we would not be able to pull-off all the events we do 💙
