In Frankfurt am Main, everything revolves around money. Its focus is on the further development of infrastructures in the FinTech sector. With strong financial sector partners, solutions are created to make the financial market even more future-proof.
The Digital Hub Frankfurt connects players from the financial sector with the start-up scene. The community in the TechQuartier, the heart of the Hub, consists of more than 700 start-ups, 50 academic and entrepreneurial innovators and hundreds of potential business founders. As a cross-industry innovation platform, the TechQuartier brings start-ups, scale-ups, investors, companies and young talent together to advance technologies and digital solutions.The Hub's programmes include mentoring and educational components, pitch events and workshops. The aim of the latter is to break down entrenched patterns of thought and develop a new digital understanding – for technology trends such as artificial intelligence, blockchain or sustainable finance, for example. This creates a suitable environment for research and development.
