ShareYourSpace at the SOA 2024 in Bonn
The Startup Open Air Bonn 2024 offered us the opportunity to gain valuable insights and make exciting contacts. Romina and Julia were there with our ShareYourSpace stand and were able to gain positive experiences and make valuable contacts.
Romina: ‘The sweltering heat of 31 degrees was a challenge for us as exhibitors, but we were still able to hold very interesting discussions, especially with the hubs and start-up centres in a relaxed atmosphere throughout.’
Julia: ‘The ecosystems and accelerators in the Rhineland and Ruhr region were particularly impressive and we had very good discussions and got to know great new start-ups, companies and accelerators.’
Our personal highlights were talks with Lena Pieper from HALLO FREEMOM, Katharina Gerkum from Der Techniker Krankenkasse, Alexander Haunhorst from Valutistech and the Denkschmiede team from Hennef. Even though we were not always able to follow the keynotes, we gained valuable insights and the concept behind our stand was received very positively by the majority.
Conclusion
To summarise, we can say that the event was a great success. The event enabled us to present our ideas and concepts and make new contacts. Although the fair was not as busy as the Munich Startup Festival, for example, probably due to the heat, we took the opportunity to be seen and get in touch with the community. It was a valuable day for exchange and networking.
We would like to thank all participants and organisers for the interesting conversations and look forward to future networking opportunities.
