About

Starting a company in Germany used to mean paperwork, notaries, and patience. But now, a new wave of LegalTech and Fintech innovation is tearing down bureaucracy for founders — and turning incorporation into a digital-first experience. In this episode of Startuprad.io, we sit down with Alexander Müller (Holvi) and Felix Gerlach (Beglaubigt.de) to explore how these two companies are shaping the future of digital company formation in Europe. You’ll learn: How to start a company in Germany — step-by-step, digitally. Why bureaucracy has long been a barrier for founders (and how LegalTech fixes it). How Fintech platforms like Holvi speed up compliance and onboarding. What this means for international founders entering Germany’s market. Where LegalTech and Fintech partnerships are headed next.
