The Mannheimer Gründer-Gespräche (Entrepreneurial Founders get-together) is run as part of the Institut for Mittelstandforschung (Institute for research into small to medium size companies) under Prof Woywode, our Strategic Management Professor.
Enrique and I attended the evening near Mannheim to get a feel of the entrepreneur community in the area. These events are relatively new but provide a great opportunity for students, founders and business people to get together and hear each others stories. Also in attendance were a few VC's, Professors and researchers.
Bionade - German Success Story
Bionade is a German success story. I went along to the www.thinc.de presentation this evening to get further insights into the Entrepreneur industry in Germany. The first thing to note was that the lecture hall was jam packed. Standing room only at the back.
Peter Kowalsky is the founder of Bionade. He is a brew-master and worked with his family and more specifically his brother and mother as a brewer. Over 10 years they experimented, alongside normal beer production, with an organically brewed alcohol free lemonade. Why brewed? To create the bubbles without using chemicals. The idea was to brew it naturally, like beer, using micro-organism to get the bubbles.
