24 startups from Hamburg and Ukraine at the OMR Startup Area
Taking place on 9 and 10 May, the OMR Festival is a magnet for all stakeholders from the digital economy. This year, the City of Hamburg will be supporting twelve startups from Ukraine and twelve startups from Hamburg via its Startup City Hamburg platform. A joint stand at OMR Expo will ensure increased visibility of the startups and their projects, and a customised programme during their stay will foster international exchange and provide additional access routes to the EU market from Hamburg.
The goal is long-term partnerships
With the joint stand in Hall A4, Stand B.09.1–B.09.8 at OMR Expo, Startup City Hamburg will provide a total of 24 startups with a powerful forum at one of the most innovative events for communication and online marketing. In the forerun to this, twelve innovative startups from Ukraine and twelve innovative startups from Hamburg were selected from a pool of 40 applications. The 24 featured startups are from the fields of digital technology, marketing and GreenTech. This initiative is supported by the Startup-Unit of Hamburg Invest, the Ukraine Ministry of Digital Transformation, the Consulate General of Ukraine, the Ukrainian Startup Fund and Hamburg's Ministry of Economy and Innovation as well as other partners.
The joint project is intended to create synergies to the benefit of everyone involved: at the conference, the selected startups will be able to connect with other professionals, present their business models and meet prospective clients and investors – while the City of Hamburg will be able to benefit from the exchange of ideas, technologies and expertise as well as long-term partnerships and potential incoming businesses in the Hamburg region.
