New RKN Innovation Center on area Böhler: Start-ups in focus!

In a significant development step, the Rhein-Kreis Neuss took measures to help support for start-ups after the bankruptcy of the "Global Entrepreneurship Center" on the area. The center, which was founded three years ago with the aim of promoting sustainable start-ups, had to close its doors after it registered bankruptcy in January 2023. This decision came as a surprise for many, since they had initially been given great hopes in the project.

However, the Rhein-Kreis Neuss remains optimistic and sees an important task in supporting start-ups with ecological business ideas. District Administrator Hans-Jürgen Petrauschke said that despite the bankruptcy, the concept of the innovation center was still relevant. On request, a spokesman confirmed that an “RKN Innovation Center” was now being launched in order not only to continue to maintain the existing founding on the Böhler area, but also to create additional potential for sustainable developments.

The Rhein-Kreis has specifically rented an area of around 650 square meters on the area. This measure aims to ensure the subsequent use of a part of the former area of the "Global Entrepreneurship Center" and thus create freedom for creative and innovative ideas. Economic development is considering implementing various programs under the title "Rknextgen" that aim to support the developers of tomorrow and to offer them suitable framework conditions.

The project has the potential to revitalize the region's entrepreneurial environment. By continuing the development of sustainable start-ups, an important contribution to the regional economy could be made. Future founders will find the support that you need to implement your ideas on the Böhler area. The networking of creative minds and the exchange of knowledge and experiences are in the foreground.

In addition, it is expected that the new initiative also initiates cooperation with existing companies in the area and other partners. These collaborations are of central importance to develop innovative concepts and successfully design market launches. Thus, the district economy support relies on a comprehensive network that enables start-ups not only to prosperate locally but also nationally.

The shift to a new innovation center reflects the dynamic changes within the start-up scene, which are currently taking place in Germany. In Germany, great importance is still placed on innovation, especially when it comes to sustainable business models. The Rhein-Kreis Neuss seems to be on a promising path to lower the barriers for founders and create a fertile environment in which innovative ideas can become reality.

This initiative requires close cooperation between politics, business and the start-ups itself. The right support at the right time can make the difference in the early success story of a company. By taking responsibility and creating a new Center for Innovation and Foundation, he positions himself as a pioneer for the promotion of sustainable entrepreneurship in German space.
