The German startup ecosystem is off to a strong start in 2026: Between January and June, 3,053 new startups were founded. This represents a 52 percent increase compared to the second half of 2025 and means more startups were founded than in all of 2024.
Yes, but for germany this might be a metric for reduced bureucracy. Failing a startup is always easy, but starting a startup in germany might not be trivial.
Otherwise I agree.
It is very easy. Can be done within a week for a capital based company and even faster with a personal liability company.
