Matching Startups and Companies
Southern Lower Saxony now has its own platform where startups and the regional business community can network with one another free of charge. On the SNIC Whitelabel platform on THE GROW, startups post information about themselves, their products, their innovations, and their industry—this helps local companies discover newly developed business models, products, and innovations and enables them to support these through sales, networking, and capital.
Through the Innovation Hub, companies can also search specifically for startups based on their capabilities and disruptive potential. Furthermore, there is the option to post requests, prompting startups with suitable products, solutions, or expertise to reach out. This gives the regional business community access to innovative products and technologies, enabling them to forge valuable partnerships and ensure the company’s long-term success.
By registering with the SNIC Whitelabel, startups can access the entire THE GROW platform free of charge, promote their products and services across Europe, and thereby initiate investments and partnerships. Free access for companies is initially limited to the SNIC Whitelabel—however, if interested and needed, this can be expanded for a fee to the entire platform, which features approximately 100,000 startups.
