It's mid-September and autumn is coming soon. Although the days are getting shorter and colder, the season promises to be anything but mundane. And, the heat is on when it comes to the many great startup events in September and October in Hamburg. The following is an overview:
1,001 events in September
The week from September 12-18, 2022 is proving exciting with workshops, exhibitions and keynotes on 5G applications, e-mobility and climate protection in a circus tent at the InnovationsZirkus from September 14-15. Delegates will be spoilt for choice on September 15 given the many events. The Gründerszene Spätschicht is ideal for exchanging ideas and networking while the European Digital Twin Summit offers an opportunity to learn more about the use of Digital Twin technologies, the code.talks, the class reunion of the tech scene and the grand finale of the Female StartAperitivo pitch event series.

The week will be rounded off by COMPAR-EU Hackathon from September 16-17 which will bring young researchers, hackers and experts together.
After a short "breather", events will continue on Tuesday (September 20, 2022) with a virtual event on "Fostering International Innovation in the Public Domain - How Cities Engage with Global and Local Startup Communities" by the Northern German Innovation Office (NGIO) and the Senate Chancellery of the Free and Hanseatic City of Hamburg.
