Hamburg Next Level makes startups fit for internationalisation
With the Hamburg Next Level initiative, the Hamburg Chamber of Commerce, in cooperation with the Start2 Group funding organisation, aims to support startups in their international expansion. The programme consists of three phases; the application deadline for the first phase is 6 December at 6:00 p.m.
The three phases on the path to internationalisation
The first phase, entitled “Prepare”, consists of two workshop days on December 10 and 12, 2024. The workshops will be held in English. In spring 2025, the program will continue with “Discover” and tailored preparation for specific entry into international markets. “Access” will conclude in the summer with a delegation trip including pitches to investors and networking with potential partners. You can apply for each phase individually, but successful completion of one phase increases your chances of being considered for the next. Currently, it is only possible to apply for “Prepare”.
