Social entrepreneurship – a vision

We are a group of people who believe that social entrepreneurship can improve society. We want to share this with you.

Meaningful work? Check! Meaningful work in beautiful Chemnitz? Double check! I am happy to be a part of Gründungsgarage. Here I would like to remind you that business and social responsibility do belong together. Mission drift? Nope, not with us.

Co-Project Management in proxy

Meeting people, listening to them, experiencing their ideas and encouraging them to try new things – these are things I enjoy and why I am right at Gründungsgarage. I want to contribute to shaping and positively changing our world and the way we live together.

Julia

Co-Head of Operation Management

If there’s some kind of supporter syndrome, then I definitely have it. Good ideas fire me up just as much as an espresso with sugar. On the administrative side, I’m also on hand to offer advice and support to Gründungsgarage.

Jeanette

Co-Project Management

Currently on parental leave. What is particularly important to me? A just society in which everyone can participate and everyone is heard. In Gründungsgarage I am happy to meet young people who are looking for solutions to our planetary problems and finding them. My heart beats for joint exchange, learning from each other and implementing ideas as a team.
