The start-up team provides support on the way to independence and is also available to start-ups for questions regarding the consolidation of the company after its foundation. One industry focus is on knowledge-intensive services. With the initiative "BonnProfits Start-up Services", the Bonn Economic Development Corporation and Sparkasse KölnBonn motivate start-ups to implement their business ideas. This service is complemented by attractive office space in the BonnProfits Innovation and Start-up Center. In the future, this service will be supplemented by the Sustainability Hub, which is currently being established and will support start-ups as well as existing companies in the development of sustainable business models, products and services.

The real estate service works closely with owners and brokers of office and commercial space. Requests for space from self-employed persons, companies, institutions and public institutions can thus be met in a demand-oriented and neutral manner.

The financing and subsidy consulting for start-ups and existing companies includes the financing of investments, the creation of liquidity or the improvement of the climate balance and energy efficiency through public and private financiers.

The Economic Development Department networks the business community, be it larger companies (City Hall Roundtable on Business), the business community as a whole (Bonn Business Talks), specific groups (Producing Companies Discussion Group) or in the industrial parks (Industrial Park Talks).
Unfortunately, many face-to-face events had to be canceled due to Corona. These were switched to digital or hybrid formats. Under significantly relaxed Corona regulations, face-to-face events will be organized and held again from mid-2022.

Up-to-date information on this is available via www.bonn.de, www.bonnprofits.de, the e-mail newsletter, and the profile of Bonn Economic Development on the XING network.

On June 14, 2022, after a two-year break due to the pandemic, the Bonn Business Talks took place again on the forecourt of the Bonn Opera House. The 23rd edition was held under the motto "In dialogue on site". Around 1,000 guests from business, science, politics and administration accepted the invitation and used the event to network and maintain contacts. At the same time, 42 partners and sponsors, who significantly finance the business talks, took the opportunity to present themselves and their services to the audience. Back in 1997, the City of Bonn invited leading representatives to an open-air reception in the courtyards of the Old City Hall for the first time. Since then, the event has grown steadily and has been held in and around the Bonn Opera House since 2012.
