The Deutsches Elektronen-Synchrotron DESY in Hamburg is about more than just world-class research – it’s also a great place to start a business. DESY gives deep tech and research-intensive start-ups the environment they need to flourish. But there’s more: The nearby Start-up Labs Bahrenfeld support founders as they take the next steps, acting as an incubator.

In this first episode of our new format „DESY Start-ups meet bulb – Deep Tech Talk“ we chat with two people who have become integral parts in DESY’s innovation and start-up work: Lizzy Harmstorf, Start-up Coach at DESY Start-up Office, and Denny Droßmann, CEO of Start-up Labs Bahrenfeld, join us in this episode to share their insights.
