A real-world sense of what it's like to launch a startup

Our HPI Engine Startup Tour takes you straight into the heart of vibrant startup ecosystems. We travel to different cities to meet with startup founders, venture capitalists, and consultancies—right where innovation happens. The goal is to give students a real-world sense of what it's like to launch a startup or work in this dynamic industry.From Berlin to Munich to London—each tour is packed with inspiring encounters. You'll meet experienced founders, investors, and consultants who share their founding stories, investment strategies, and lessons learned. And there’s always room for your questions in open Q&A sessions.
