When searching for the top 10 startup hubs in the world, one name you can’t overlook in any list available anywhere on the web is Berlin, the UNESCO “City of Design”. Surprisingly, a survey on Venture Village shows that Berlin has 50% increase in startups from 2008 to present as compared to Munich. Ranked on number 20 by the World Bank Group in terms of “Ease of Doing Business”, no doubt StartupBootcamp enlisted this wonderhub as one of the top 3 startup ecosystems round the world.
