where to set up our company, we

chose Berlin over San Francisco

because so many people from

different countries live here. (We

knew) we could build an inter-

national team with them. I am

excited about this city’s diversity –

in both its culture and population.”

We are from Berlin

Berlin-based digital companies talk about their location

“It would not be possible to imagine Wooga in its current form

in any other city in Europe: Berlin is international, creative and affordable. More than half of our 250 employees from abroad have relocated to Berlin to work for us. Additionally, the city has taken off in recent years, increasingly attracting both international VCs and the international press.” Jens Begemann, founder and CEO, Wooga GmbH

“Berlin is the centre for the entire digital marketing sector in Europe. Had Berlin not been so attractive on a national and international scale, both for employees and for new startups, we would not have been able to transform Zanox into Europe’s leading performance advertising network in just 13 years.” Thomas Joosten, CEO, Zanox AG
