40 years of deGUT!
Germany's largest start-up fair and the event when it comes to self-employment and business management celebrated its anniversary.
This year, the fair took place for the 40th time - on October 11 and 12, 2024 in the ARENA Berlin. Around 6,000 participants took part and attended over 125 individual events.
In 2024, the deGUT program once again offered a wide range of events. In over 125 individual events, not only the speakers were in demand - the active participation and creativity of the visitors also played a central role. From keynotes and pitches to competitions, seminars and workshops, the program covered all phases of the start-up process.
There was a particular focus on company succession and the specific challenges that come with it.
Experience reports from the social economy were very well received. Topics such as the promotion of migrant start-ups and women in business start-ups also took center stage. For example, successful female founders in the seminar “Female Role Female Role Models Share Their Stories”, for example, successful female founders gave valuable tips on how to become self-employed. At the seminar “Female Empowerment: More than just ‘Tschakka’”, female founders were encouraged to pursue their goals with determination. Numerous visitors also took advantage of individual advisory services to gain valuable insights and learn from the network's experience.
deGUT will take place again on October 10 + 11, 2025.
Take your chance! We look forward to seeing you!
