Networking events
As an economic development agency, we want to connect entrepreneurs and founders with each other and with key players in the city of Mainz. To this end, we offer a number of networking events:
- Network City Breakfast
—for entrepreneurs in Mainz city center—
we invite you to join us for an exchange on the first Wednesday of every month. A collaboration between the advertising association, city management, and economic development agency.
- Network
Snack – for all entrepreneurs and founders –
Mainz's "Network Snack" will take place twice a year at lunchtime in different companies. Here, both established companies and young entrepreneurs can get to know each other, network, and exchange ideas.
- Founder
Barbecue – for all Mainz founders and those interested in founding a company –
Mainz founders introduce themselves and their ideas in a short pitch. The audience can then literally "grill" them with questions about their start-up idea. At the end, the best pitch is voted on.
- Careers in the region
– for entrepreneurs and students –
Mainz students and graduates meet representatives from companies and have the opportunity to get to know each other and engage in intensive discussions over the course of an afternoon. The events always have a specific industry theme.
Chambers and associations
We are constantly expanding and adapting our range of services. We welcome your ideas. For further information on the economic development agency's networking events or to subscribe to our newsletter, please contact us.
