20 Years of Sparkasse Heidelberg’s Start Up Center

Sparkasse Heidelberg is celebrating 20 years of its Start Up Center. Its commitment to the startup community helps shape our region.

“When it comes to money… Sparkasse.”

Even though the slogan is older and has long since been replaced, it is still firmly lodged in my head. The marketing team at the time certainly did a good job. 😉

I have enjoyed a friendly working relationship with Sparkasse Heidelberg for many years. Not only because it is my main bank and an important partner for Dinner im Schloss, but also because it promotes and supports so many areas of our beautiful region. The startup community in particular benefits greatly from Sparkasse’s commitment and its Start Up Center.

On 4 December, the Start Up Center will celebrate its twentieth anniversary with a special event at the new Europaplatz in Heidelberg. We can look forward to an exciting panel discussion with founders Thorsten Heilig of Paretos and Sieer Angar.

I will definitely be there and am already looking forward to it. For anyone else who would like to attend, a few places are still available. Feel free to contact me or Markus Robl.

Perhaps we will see each other on Thursday. I am looking forward to it. 🙌
