Düsseldorf is home to a variety of coffee houses. And more are springing up all the time: the number of trendy coffee locations that attract visitors at any time of day with their cosy ambience, tasty delights and cultural diversity keeps growing. In the city centre, but also in other boroughs. The focus of interest lies not only on individual roasts that give each coffee its own, distinctive flavour. The origin of the beans is also crucial: sustainability and fair trade were never as important to coffee connoisseurs as they are today. Four coffee houses from Düsseldorf present their concepts!

Despite the pandemic, Düsseldorf‘s start-up ecosystem is flourishing. That is reflected by some impressive figures for 2021. 500 startups with more than 5,400 employees were recorded - that‘s an increase of 23 percent compared to the previous year! 103 start-ups were founded here - that‘s an increase of 12 per cent compared to 2020! So we can look forward to seeing how the success story continues this year. Also contributing to this are these three start-ups from Düsseldorf, who are likewise undeterred by the current particularly difficult conditions: Camper Active, Livello and UPLINK Network.
