  • RISE: CONNECT+ at STADTLABOR+ Amberg

    Start-up consulting

    Together with our partner, the Amberg Economic Development Agency, we, the RISE, are organizing an open event in Amberg during the nationwide Start-up Week: CONNECT+ at STADTLABOR+.

    When? Thursday, November 20, 2025, starting at 6 p.m.

    Where? Stadtlabor + (Bahnhofstraße 10, 92224 Amberg)

    Who? Founders, start-ups, companies, and supporters from the region, as well as anyone interested in the topic of start-ups.

    The focus will be on a discussion with former founders Timo Schertel and Tom Haberl, who have successfully sold their start-ups. Together, they will share insights into their experiences and discuss exit as a strategic option for founders in a moderated discussion. Following the talk, participants/companies will have the opportunity to present their own projects or questions in an open pitch round. At the end, there will be an opportunity for open networking over drinks and snacks.

    Further information and free registration can be found on the event page.
