About Us

After 10 years of mapping innovation ecosystems worldwide with our publisher Startup Guide, we have learned that local innovation plays a crucial role in solving some of the most complex issues of our time. And we now know that entrepreneurship and innovation are absolutely everywhere!

The problem is no longer finding the next big idea: it's connecting local challenges with innovative solutions.

We have mapped and seen them; they are out there.

The challenge now becomes: How do we get these solutions into the hands of those who need them most? How do we ensure that innovation reaches every corner of the globe and transforms our cities into beacons of sustainability and progress?

City.solutions, the new venture by Startup Guide, serves as the bridge between local and global startup solutions and cities worldwide. Our mission is to tackle the pressing environmental and societal challenges urban areas face.

We identify innovative solutions and work tirelessly to move them from the drawing board to real-world implementation. We are open to collaborating with cities on their journey to transform into hubs of sustainability and innovation. We also work with startups that want to take on local challenges to help shape a greener and more prosperous urban future.
