As part of our "Brown Bag Luncheon on Entrepreneurship" series, we were excited to welcome Jake Krengel from Bavaria & Beyond Tours as our speaker! Mr. Krengel talked about his experience of starting a business as an American in Germany, the pitfalls and challenges as well as the individual steps he had to take.

Afterwards, there was plenty of time for a vivid Q&A session and more networking and coffee! We're excited that so many Americans and Germans stayed long after the event to chat, exchange information and build their networks. A big thank you to Jake Krengel for coming all the way from Bavaria and to Welcome to Rheinland-Pfalz and its project manager John Constance for the great organization of the event!

The event was held in cooperation with our partners from the U.S. Consulate General Frankfurt, the American German Business Club Kaiserslautern, Germany and the Wirtschaftsförderung Kaiserslautern. The event was also generously supported by the U.S. Embassy Berlin. We're looking forward to our next event and to further strengthen American-German relations and supporting the business and start-up community here in #Kaiserslautern and Rheinland-Pfalz!
