    Start-up scene in Knonauer Amt receives support

    The Knonauer Amt location development agency supports prospective company founders from the region. Together with the Coachingplus coworking space in Affoltern and the Startzentrum Zurich cooperative, it developed the idea of offering corresponding workshops. The first one has already taken place, and follow-up events are planned.

    The first workshop met with great interest. A total of 40 participants, two-thirds of them women, dealt with the path from idea to business model under the guidance of speaker Nicolas Goetsch, the managing director of the Startzentrum Zurich. According to an article in the “Affolter Anzeiger”, Goetsch encouraged those present to use a visual planning model to deal concretely with their own business ideas, with customer profiles, customer benefits, offer sketches and revenue models. The speaker’s slides can be viewed online.

    For the follow-up date on 29 June, exchange talks are planned on the topic of challenges in setting up a business. Registrations are requested by 22 June. In addition, the location promoter offers personal advice via the Start Centre and Startbox Zurich, a digital start-up guide for setting up a business in the Canton of Zurich.
