Berlin is a dynamic hotspot for start-up founders. It is a diverse, international city with a worldwide reputation for innovation in the IT sector. Business angels, incubators, and accelerators support new businesses to get off the ground. But, as we all know, a lot of start-ups fail. These failures have different reasons, not only financial ones. It is necessary for start-up managers to have special knowledge to manage their start-ups: The ability to master theoretical and practical knowledge might distinguish a successful from an unsuccessful start-up.
