About MotionLab.Berlin
Get to
know us
MotionLab.Berlin started as a simple idea: a place to build things without hidden costs, without buying your own machines, and without doing it alone. Since then, members of our community have exited to Ford Motor Company for over €250 million, raised multiple million-euro rounds, and built technology changing how the world manufactures, moves, and heals. We are Germany's official Deep Tech Hub – with our focus always on hardtech and the people driving transformative technology forward.
A space to build. A community to build with. Join us now!
Where founders, engineers, makers, and artists build hardtech and shape the world around them.
Startups Creatives Corporations
The infrastructure is real. Eight labs. CNC machines. Laser cutters. Metal workshops. 3D printing at scale. If you're building physical things, you need physical tools. We have them.
The community does the rest. 110+ startups have called us home. Some have raised rounds. Some have exited. Most are still building – and they're still here.
This is what a typical Tuesday looks like. Founders troubleshooting prototypes. Engineers in the makerspace. A mentor dropping by. No one's here by accident.
Recognition
MotionLab.Berlin is recognised by the German Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Climate Action (BMWK) as Germany’s official Deep Tech Hub – part of the de:hub initiative. That recognition reflects what the community has built over eight years – not the other way around. Built for people who make things. From lab to market – since 2017.

"For early-stage founders, having the right insurance coverage in place is one of the most important – and most frequently overlooked – tasks. Through our partnership with MotionLab.Berlin, we help the teams here get it right from the very beginning. MotionLab.Berlin brings together exactly the kind of committed, hands-on founders we want to support."

The Hardtech Couch with Diamontech
DiaMonTech won the Berlin Deep Tech Award in 2024. They scaled inside MotionLab.Berlin’s infrastructure. And now—they’ve come back as a Challenge Giver, asking the next generation of engineers to help build the automated test station needed to manufacture 100,000 non-invasive blood glucose devices.
MotionLab.Berlin is Germany’s premier Innovation Hub & Makerspace – an ecosystem for Hardtech, art, creativity, and entrepreneurship.
