Then, Dr. Merle Fuchs took over, who initiated a very fruitful discussion with young start-uppers.

Which are the chances and the challenges of starting-up your own innovative business? Which are the most important elements for strategic planning and how can a start-up make the move from uncertainty towards success?

Amongsts others, these were some of the most crucial issues raised during the discussion beween Dr. Merle Fuchs, Founder & CEO of TechnologieContor in the German city Gera and advisor for start-ups, and students of the Athens University for Economics and Business (ASOEE). After braking the ice with an introductory presentation, Dr. Fuchs started a discussion on analysing successful technology start-ups. Later on, the students were given the chance to exchange views with the expert from Germany on their own start-ups and on their own ideas.

This pitch event was organised in mid April by the Konrad-Adenauer-Stiftung in Athens in cooperation with the student organisation ThinkBiz.
