"The computer was invented in Berlin. Nowadays it’s the future"
That is one of the new campaign slogans of the metropolis Berlin. The city has developed in recent years to a magnet for creative minds from around the world, who meet here on common ground to implement their ideas with fun and pioneering spirit. They meet in Berlin on fertile breeding ground for foundation. Nowhere else in Germany so many new companies in the Internet, social media, mobile business and IT are launched as here.
