Consulting services for start-ups

Support on the path to independence

Advice days in the city and district of Hof

The Chamber of Industry and Commerce for Upper Franconia Bayreuth is a key partner for the advice days in the city and district of Hof. This offer is intended to continue to support the start-up culture in the Hof region. The path to self-employment is usually not easy and is associated with many uncertainties. For this reason, it is helpful to make use of advisory services. First and foremost is the business model, which must be viable enough for a business to exist. It is also necessary to determine target groups and align the product and marketing accordingly, calculate prices, find locations and combine the whole thing into a business plan as a set of figures. Finally, financing partners must also be convinced of the concept. There are also other tasks such as choosing the legal form or registering the business. But if you have a good business idea, you should not be put off. The Hofer Land economic region in particular offers good chances of success for start-ups.

The promotion of business start-ups is an important pillar of local economic policy in the Hofer Land region. New companies, products and business ideas grow and create jobs, which is why the economic development agencies of the city of Hof and the district of Hof work together with the Chamber of Industry and Commerce for Upper Franconia Bayreuth, the LfA Förderbank Bayern and the Aktivsenioren Bayern e.V. to provide business start-up advice.
