We Provide Orientation and the Right Contacts

You want to turn your business idea into reality, would like to work in your own company, or are considering whether you want to take over an existing company as its successor? There are many reasons to become self-employed. We help you plan the founding of your business right from the start and are attentive listeners for you to talk to about your plans.

The offers for business founders are diverse. We provide orientation so that you can find the right contacts directly. During the consultation meeting, we determine which other offers are also useful for you and set up a timetable for your further business-founding process. We keep in touch with you during the entire business-founding phase.

In agreement with the business founders, we also call in experts from professional associations and chambers of commerce. We prepare you for your talks with lawyers, notaries, tax advisers, and bank advisers.

You can discuss all aspects of your company establishment in a confidential setting with a neutral advisor. The following topics are commonly covered in our advisory meetings:

• The person of the founder, his/her qualifications and personal environment
• The business concept and the market
• Cooperation with the university, college and research institutions
• Company and brand name, patents, Licensing and permits
• Time schedule for realisation
• Legal structure of the new company
• Location and properties (data base of available commercial properties)
• Subsidies and financing (subsidy database)
• Creation of a business plan (free software for start ups)
• Preparation for the conversations with banks and financiers
• From employee to employer
• First steps: Advertising, accountancy, sales
