Next up was a crash course on growth-hacking by Kyrill Krystallis, Founder at Inside Insight. We learnt a few tricks on how to get more traffic to websites, as well as how to use the software to do so.
Thomas von Muenster gave an insightful presentation on real estate investment, and why Berlin is the city to start investing in with attractive loan and mortgage options.
Then, Carsten Heinrich presented a step-by-step scenario in which foreign investors can buy property in Berlin, as well as the different costs and fees to be taken into account. He answered a critical question on whether foreign investors are able to buy property without actually being on-site or even in the country, and also the importance of having a property manager.
The next speaker, Arkadi Jampolski from Wunderflats, talked about the furnished apartments market. Although impacted by the pandemic, Wunderflats saw an exponential growth in demand for internationals who now see Germany as the country to be in in post-pandemic times, especially due to its efficient crisis management.
The last on stage was Esther Bahne from Quarters Co-Living. Esther explained how the pandemic had triggered a trend in individuals looking to share spaces with others, and that the niche-market they previously targeted had now become their main market. Esther believes with great passion that co-living will play a great role in the future.
Louisa Madders started the first round by presenting AiRelo, the world’s first smart city registration assistant whose sole mission is to make international life easier. The second round was followed by Tierry Ondet, who explained the rapid growth of Room, a company focused on creating modular office spaces ranging from phone booths to flexible offices. The last to pitch was Gabriela Postole, an interior designer at Home Design Packages. Gabriela expressed the passion she exhibits for design as well as her dedication to transforming any place into a true home, with all the talent she has to offer.
