The founding story
If you ask Christoph Neye how MotionLab.Berlin was born, he always replies with a big grin: “Actually, I only wanted to build a bicycle.”
We are glad that it didn’t remain with said bicycle and that today we look proudly at what was unthinkable just a few years ago. A 4500m2 Hardtech Innovation Hub and home to over 70 startups and more than 500 members. As with many startups, it all began with a small idea and very personal challenges.
Because at the time, and without knowing it, each of the three founders faced different problems that they could have solved with a place like today’s MotionLab.Berlin.
That’s why the three founders decided to create a place that they had originally been looking for themselves. Through feedback from the first members, conversations with mentors and a lot of their own creative will, MotionLab.Berlin continued to develop and become what it is today.
