Welcome to SRH Hochschule Berlin – The International Management University! Since 2002 SRH Hochschule Berlin has been setting standards in academic education. The interrelation of teaching, practical experience and research in management studies offers students the ideal environment to prepare for their future career.

Freie Universität Berlin was founded in 1948 by professors and students, in response to the persecution faced by students who took a critical eye of the system at Universität Unter den Linden, at that time located in the Soviet sector of the divided city of Berlin.

The idea of founding a free university found widespread support in the international community, including financial support. This outpouring of aid helped pave the way for Freie Universität to become a university with an outstanding international reputation.

Today, Freie Universität is one of Germany’s leading research universities. The principles of freedom and internationality have guided the university’s development ever since.

Venture Daily’s editorial team scours over a hundred news sites every day in search of key startup news. We want to give our readers the perfect morning reading every morning. In the style of conventional daily newspapers, we summarize the daily events of the day before, filter, curate, comment and summarize. Better you can not consume startup messages.

Behind venture Daily is NKF Media – and thus the same team that also the startup Magazine Berlin Valley and the hundreds of manufactures and the German startup database heet.io . NKF Media is a team full of startup enthusiasts. We observe the current affairs and record the trends that determine our future. We have been doing this since 2013. Regardless of which medium or channel, we want to provide our readers with an orientation in a changing world and point out the most important future trends. The future is a wonderful thing, as long as you see it coming in early and classify it correctly. Here, the daily startup newsletter Venture Daily should be a constant companion.

At the end of 2016, the NKF Summit hosted a series of conferences on our popular startup magazines. The NKF Summit is a link between established companies (corporates, SMEs) and the startup world. The next NKF Summit will take place on September 8, 2017 with approx. 500 participants and 40 outstanding speakers in the Berlin Radial System.

Since 2011 the term “Silicon Allee” has become synonymous with Berlin’s tech ecosystem. Berlin has become Europe’s startup capital, eclipsing London in 2014 in venture capital investments. Berlin is now one of the top cities in the world for entrepreneurs.

We have consulted companies moving to Berlin, produced internationally renowned events in the city and continue to produce valuable content to promote and provide deeper insights into the local tech economy. We have grown to also become the first contact many have with Berlin’s tech ecosystem – the unofficial welcoming committee for Berlin’s newest entrepreneurs and tech employees.
