The Start-up Week in Düsseldorf starts on June 4 with 120 events. This is interesting for founders with an idea but no further plans. There is also a prize to be won for the best business model or the best pitch.

It's Start-up Week in Düsseldorf again: from June 4 to 11, there are plenty of events related to the scene. Anyone who already has an idea in mind but has not yet pushed ahead with its implementation and further development can take part in the "NEXT Award Düsseldorf" start-up competition. During the competition, there will be three workshops in which the business idea will be tested and the business model discussed.

There is the "Best Business Model" award, which comes with 10,000 euros in services. There is also the "Best Pitch" category, which is decided by public voting and has a voucher worth 3,000 euros as a prize. A jury of experts will decide on the best business model.

The award ceremony will take place on October 7, the kick-off event is on June 4. There are 120 events during the Start-up Week, including plenty for those interested in founding a company. It takes place both analog and digitally.
