For 70 percent, this is very important. 55 percent consider the exemption from legal requirements and bureaucracy in the first two years after founding to be particularly important. A small majority (56%) cite simplified access to public contracts for start-ups as a very important measure, while 44% cite simplifying and accelerating the formation of companies. Wintergerst: &#8220;The measures considered particularly important by startups could be tackled immediately by the federal government without having to provide additional budget funds. All that is needed is the common political will.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>From a startup perspective, the expansion of the Future Fund to attract more institutional investors to the venture capital market (43%), the strengthening of funding programs for cooperation between startups and SMEs (39%) and the simplified immigration of qualified workers from outside Europe (39%) are also important. Around a third each consider easier access to public data (32%) and further improving the attractiveness of employee equity investments (31%) to be very important. A quarter prioritize the expansion of publicly funded incubators (25 percent). <\/p>\n<h3 class=\"\">Methodological note<\/h3>\n<p>The data is based on a survey conducted by Bitkom Research on behalf of the digital association Bitkom. This involved an online survey of 172 tech start-ups from Germany. The survey took place in the period from week 7 to week 15 2024. The survey is not representative, but provides a meaningful picture of the mood among tech start-ups in Germany. The questions were &#8220;What school grade do you give the federal government with regard to its startup policy?&#8221; and &#8220;Imagine you were the Federal Chancellor. In your opinion, how important would it be to implement the following measures in the area of startup policy?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; &#8211; &#8211; &#8211; &#8211;<\/p>\n<h4 class=\"\">Further links<\/h4>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.bitkom.org\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\ud83d\udc49 www.bitkom.org<\/a>&nbsp; <\/p>\n<p><i>Photo: pixabay<\/i><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>August 5, 2024.
