Entrepreneurship
Entrepreneurship is the driving force behind the continuous development of Silicon Saxony and its members. In the corresponding department, we deal with topics such as start-ups, growth, legal issues, communication, diversity and sustainability. The cluster management is also assigned to this department.
The primary aim of the Entrepreneurship department is to promote exchange between members on these topics. The working groups essentially serve this purpose. The Start-up working group is an exception – it is primarily a non-public platform for start-ups to receive qualified feedback on their pitch decks.
The association also offers advice on cluster management and development. Please do not hesitate to contact us.

Topics in the competence area
Diversity
Diversity is one of the most important drivers of innovation. The ICT industry in particular demonstrates this on a daily basis. It is a melting pot of different nationalities, religions, and personalities. That is why diversity also plays an important role in Silicon Saxony. In addition to a working group that offers a variety of exchanges, we are involved in numerous initiatives in this area. Diversity is at home here.
Sustainability
For over 15 years, sustainability has also played a central role for the players in Silicon Saxony. At that time, the “Cool Silicon” leading-edge cluster was founded, which focused entirely on energy efficiency in the ICT industry. A lot has happened in this area since then. Taking action now to secure the future of the next generations is more important than ever. Silicon Saxony and its members contribute to this through their daily work.
Start-ups
Silicon Saxony is the ideal environment for deep tech start-ups and scale-ups. The region is not only home to up-and-coming companies such as Staffbase, Wandelbots, and Senorics, it also offers ideal conditions for exchange with numerous small, medium-sized, and large companies based here. From networking with relevant stakeholders to helpful events and activities, you’ve come to the right place.
