In autumn 2018, the company launched a media website, startupguide.com, which was born out of the desire to explore different types of content and reach a wider audience by taking advantage of the digital medium. At the core of Startup Guide’s three physical stores in Berlin, Copenhagen and Lisbon are the belief that there’s nothing like real-life experiences and seeing and feeling actual products.
