Two ways lead to the Reeperbahn Startup Pitch. At the me Convention (collaboration of Mercedes-Benz and SXSW) in Frankfurt, a first-class jury will choose the first finalist. Our top-class advisory board will select four further candidates who will be able to live out their rock star qualities on the stage of the Mojo Club.
