For Israeli and German companies
Young Israeli companies that want to take the step into Europe can network directly with Germany's most populous metropolis via Innovation Bridge Israel and develop contacts in the business world.
The Ruhr Valley is ideal for expanding into Europe from the heart of North Rhine-Westphalia.
The Innovation Bridge opens up a unique network and access to a promising market for start-ups. The goal is to build a strong network in the international innovation ecosystem. The settlement of Israeli companies in the Ruhr Metropolis is to be supported.
The existing good networking with the various players in the Ruhr region helps expanding companies to get off to a faster start with the right contacts. In the project, companies from the Ruhr region meet innovations and inspiration from the international start-up metropolis.

Innovation scouting and direct contact
Trend and start-up scouting is a tool of Innovation Bridge Israel. Together with AHK Israel, Business Metropole Ruhr searches for interesting start-ups and technical solutions in Israel for established companies such as Vonovia and Rhenus Logistics in the Ruhr Metropolis, identifies contacts and arranges the initial exchange between organizations in Israel and the Ruhr Metropolis.
Fast connection for start-ups
The start-up PlaceSense discovered the Ruhr region via the Innovation Bridge. At that time, E.ON became aware of the still young company and invested. A municipal partner also got to know the start-up and now works with the Israeli Ai.
