Smart-up Map – 4 steps to a successful start-up foundation

On the following pages you will find various information and tools to support you in the start-up process. Whether a start-up is successful depends on various factors. We can therefore unfortunately not give you a guarantee of success. Because, as is so often the case in life, a pinch of luck is also part of the equation. However, we hope that you will find helpful support on the following pages and are happy to receive any feedback. The Smart-up Map was also developed entirely in the spirit of an MVP (Minimum Viable Product) and is constantly being improved.
