The Alpine region is one of Europe’s most diverse economic zones — home to industry leaders, family businesses, and world-class startups. Yet innovation often happens in silos. Alpenvalley was created to change that: a B2B network and platform designed to connect companies, innovators, and investors across borders to share knowledge, foster partnerships, and accelerate transformation.
Our mission is simple: make the Alps a global symbol for sustainable innovation and collaboration.
From Bavaria to South Tyrol to Switzerland, the Alpine region is full of talent and infrastructure — but lacks a unified ecosystem for exchange. Startups grow in isolation, Mittelstand companies innovate quietly, and large-scale collaborations rarely cross regional lines.
We saw an opportunity to build a network that bridges these gaps. A community where entrepreneurs, industrial partners, and public stakeholders collaborate on technology, sustainability, and regional growth.
The challenge was not only to connect players but to create a structure that scales — both digitally and physically — while maintaining authenticity and trust.
We founded Alpenvalley as a hybrid ecosystem: part community, part innovation accelerator. The network combines events, think tanks, and B2B partnerships with a strong digital backbone. Our formats include exchange sessions, retreats, and roundtables, designed to inspire dialogue between traditional industries and next-generation founders.
In its early phase, we focused on curated member selection, bringing together companies that share values of sustainability, innovation, and regional commitment. Each participant gains access to insights, projects, and collaborations — powered by a trusted environment for open innovation.
Beyond the network, Alpenvalley functions as a long-term platform for R&D, connecting applied technology with real-world impact in mobility, energy, and manufacturing. The goal: strengthen Europe’s innovation independence through Alpine collaboration.
Within its first year, Alpenvalley established partnerships with local governments, industrial associations, and forward-thinking brands across Germany, Austria, and Switzerland. The network’s curated events and retreats have attracted thought leaders, investors, and innovators from multiple sectors — setting the foundation for a cross-border innovation community with global relevance.
Alpenvalley continues to grow as a platform for dialogue, development, and demonstration — where collaboration replaces competition, and the Alps become a hub for sustainable progress.
