Berlin is in — Venture Capital is experiencing a renaissance

Estab­lished venture capi­tal firms such as Early Bird are opening a new office in Berlin. Not only nume­rous inter­na­tio­nal artists and galle­ries are attrac­ted to the capi­tal, but also young start-up teams find afforda­ble office space here and at the same time more and more venture capi­tal compa­nies and “super angels” are sett­ling in Berlin. An inten­sive network exists between venture capi­ta­lists, nume­rous busi­ness angels and teams of foun­ders. 20% of the invest­ments of German VCs flow into Berlin-based high-tech compa­nies. — Is this trend really sustainable?
