Development approaches for new start-up infrastructure in Stuttgart

New start-up infrastructures for Stuttgart

What defines Stuttgart as a start-up location?
Which infrastructures are needed to implement and strengthen the existing?

The concept study aims to identify user needs of current and future founders in order to formulate leitmotifs and narratives for the city of Stuttgart with a view to the overriding challenges and requirements. The result for the city of Stuttgart is a first well-founded handout for an integrated space-oriented start-up promotion strategy. 
The identified overarching leitmotifs and narratives can guide further policies and funding and show how the city of Stuttgart can practice further networking steps with partners and founders in order to develop future start-up locations.

Method
Through an iterative process design and early involvement of local experts as well as potential users and operators, partial results and approaches have been continuously checked, while the interdisciplinary approach with analytical, scientific, planning-architectural and business management skills enables an integrated view of the topic and the formulation of overall recommendations.



Status analysis

A data-based analysis of the local and regional start-up dynamics, a thematic and infrastructural screening of the current start-up activities in the City of Stuttgart and of the needs of current and future founders provide information on the required social, technical and communicative infrastructures.

Four sub-areas can be identified from this, which have synergies and potential for development.

Development approaches
The subspatial viewing of the city makes it possible to identify programmatic targets that reflect the respective environmental and contextual conditions and to describe exemplary requirements and equipment features of possible start-up infrastructures.
These are subjected to an exemplary spatial and economic examination at exemplary locations.



Start-up Central
Biotech / Mediatech CoLab
Digital manufactory for music and performance art
Digital manufactory for handcrafts and production
Laborraum Neckar

Exemplary location options
The development approaches are subjected to an initial spatial and economic examination at exemplary locations.
The different site and building types are each linked to different time horizons for planning and implementation as well as different investment costs.
