⏯ This video shows what #Berlin's #StartupScene looked like in #2012 📹 For those uninterested in retrospectives, feel free to skip the video. Otherwise, enjoy this throwback to the 2012 startup scene. Back then, #TOA's first conference took place in a small yet idealistic Berlin startup community, aiming to use technology to 'save the world.' Convincing friends and parents about the startup path was common. The ecosystem has since grown; many early TOA startups are now corporates. #Technology has advanced rapidly and continues to accelerate. Although the future is uncertain, we at TOA believe the next decade will profoundly impact humanity following the last decade's digitalization of the economy. Join TOA this year!

Break things, make things - we build market leaders, while others talk innovation.

I remember it well! :-) It was great. I spoke in its first or second year. What an idealistic talk that was, and oh, how things have shifted in technology in ten years. Berlin was such a different place at that time, we were all wet behind the ears. Startups renting out offices in Neukoln a fraction of what they are now.

Wow - blast from the past!
