About Burghausen
The largest town in the Altotting district of Upper Bavaria, Burghausen sits on the Salzach River near the Austrian border. Home to the longest castle in the world, "Burghausen Castle", the city was first mentioned in writing in 1025. Once relying on the income from its trade in salt, this changed in 1594 when the ducal salt monopoly was established. From ancient years of flourishing times, by the end of the 19th century the city became impoverished with only 2,500 residents. In the year 1915 with the establishment of Wacker Chemical Enterprises Inc. the town once again thrived and today has about 19,000 inhabitants munching on bratwurst or hanging out in coworking venues getting creative.
Germany's startup scene is thriving with opportunities given to creative souls to pitch their ventures to investors at "Startup Germany" that went on tour at the instigation of the German Chambers of Commerce Abroad. The startup scene is a bit of a mixed bag with almost 30% of startup staff not being German. There are a few hurdles to overcome such as red tape hassles, language barriers and the fact that most founders wish to hire skilled foreign workers. Eight out of ten German startups wish to go international but legal systems and regulations may be inhibitors in this regard.
Despite these niggles, coworking spaces are overflowing with creatives in collaborative mode whilst mingling with a vibrant community.
