That's what it's all about

Meet&Match is the matchmaking format that brings people with ideas and skills together to get started as a start-up team. The matchmaking platform brings together individual founders or start-up teams and people from universities and research institutions who are interested in starting a business across disciplines, network and share ideas.

You will be accompanied by speed dating events and personal support from the Startup Port – from the first contact to the further development of your start-up idea.

Together you will grow into successful start-up teams.

Success stories

Don’t swipe, start

Oliver and Lars were there for the first run of “Meet&Match” and report on their experiences in our news.

To the whole story

“Just have a beer together!”

Bored in lockdown, playing around with lasers and suddenly you’re faced with your own start-up idea? This is roughly what happened to Johannes and Jan, the founders of the startup VLOUW. Read their success story to find out how Meet&Match enabled them to expand their team.

To the whole story

“We wanted to be a balanced team.”

What do you do when you have an almost revolutionary idea but no one to bring it to market with you? That’s right, you sign up for Meet&Match! Just like Felix, Lars and Caro from iPolis.

To the whole story

“No real life anymore!”

“We want to build something that lasts!” The two young founders Yolanda and Luca started their start-up ReDo with this dream in mind. Find out how Meet&Match has helped them in their success story.

To the whole story

A strong team is particularly important!

Get to know each other, match – and then still not found a company? At first glance, you might think that this sounds like the story of failed founders. However, Lars and Sepehr show the complete opposite.
