Munich is mostly defined by its historic buildings and numerous museums, and widely known for its annual Oktoberfest festivities and beer halls. The charm of bygone Bavaria complements the city's modern innovation and vibrant environments. But what do we know about the startup scene?

New Work in Munich

The city’s metropolitan region is not only a global centre of art, culture, and tourism, but also of science, technology, engineering, innovation, and business. The city houses many multinational companies like BMW and Siemens, and its economy is based on high tech, automobiles and IT among many others. So there is no surprise Munich is also a forward-thinking city with a tech and startup energy that has embraced the co-working culture in the recent years. Today, there are many well-designed co-working spaces throughout the city where transient workers can find communities of freelancers, and entrepreneurs who share similar interests. Working in einem coworking space in Munich offers valuable opportunities for networking and collaboration.

Public Transport

No matter which part of the city you choose to work from, you’ll get there on time. Munich’s public transportation is outstanding, as in many other cities in Germany. The city has an extensive network of underground (U-Bahn), suburban trains (S-Bahn), buses, trams, and the city tram.

It’s hard to say which coworking space is the best, but here is a list of the best coworking spaces to consider if you plan a visit to the beautiful Bavarian capital or are looking to settle in the city of Munich.

This is the perfect place for corporates, start-ups, and medium-sized companies to come together and experience the benefits of agile meeting culture.

From October 2022, smartvillage offers a new creative workspace for workshops, events and meetings in a new location called "smartvillage Bogenhausen". The design concept for this space with 17 event spaces is called "a van tour through Europe". The name stands for their analogy between the freedom and new possibilities that the Bulli van offered, and the new era of work, which involves new ways of meetings, workplaces and interactions.
