found📍Hamburg 14.07-20.07

Hamburg’s coolest tech events, delivered to your inbox every Monday.

Editor’s Note

Hey, dear reader!

Hamburg was on fire last week 🔥 You might have had a hard time picking which event to go to as there were too many and they were really good.

My personal highlight was the Innovators Circle meetup @ Google. Great talks, inspiring people, and the most exciting part — seeing found Hamburg featured there! Lena, Ben, if you’re reading this, thank you 💙

Share with me your event gem of the week!

Some pics from TMA Demo Day, Innovators Circle Meetup, and HHIS

And in other exciting news: Hamburg secured its spot as one of 10 winning cities nationwide in the EXIST Startup Factories competition. This means up to €10 million in federal funding plus over €40 million from Hamburg foundations and companies flowing into the Impossible Founders startup factory. If you're a founder in this space, follow their LinkedIn page to stay in the loop.
