About German Business Hub

The German Business Hub is a London-based business incubator dedicated to supporting small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) from Germany and the UK. Situated in the historic Temple district, it provides a collaborative environment for businesses aiming to expand internationally. The Hub connects companies with a network of professional services, including legal, tax, HR, and market entry support, while offering mentoring and business development resources. Through events, workshops, and cultural activities, it fosters connections, collaboration, and innovation. The German Business Hub works to bridge the gap between the German Mittelstand and global markets, helping companies grow and thrive abroad.

In their own words

Founded in 2024, the organisation was established to strengthen economic ties between Germany and the United Kingdom at a time when cross‑border collaboration has never been more important. Through its network of associated partners, it offers advisory services, practical support and market guidance to help German businesses navigate regulatory, operational and commercial challenges. Clients range from innovative start‑ups to established businesses looking to build a long‑term presence in the UK.

The Hub’s work is based on a network‑driven approach. By maintaining strong connections with service providers, trade associations and governmental bodies in both Germany and the UK, it enables tailored support for market entry, operational setup and strategic partnerships. This dual perspective allows the Hub not only to guide German companies through the complexities of the UK market but also to provide UK businesses with valuable insights into accessing opportunities in Germany.

Located at the very heart of the City of London in the historic Temple district, where governmental bodies, chambers, and leading professional firms sit door to door, the Hub provides both virtual and physical office solutions, fully equipped meeting spaces, and comprehensive registered and trading address services — offering German and international businesses a trusted base in London’s most influential professional quarter.

As co‑host of the German‑British Business Summit, the German Business Hub is proud to bring together senior business leaders, policymakers and industry experts to explore new opportunities for cooperation. The summit provides a unique forum for exchanging knowledge, addressing shared challenges and identifying avenues for growth in an increasingly dynamic and competitive global environment. By facilitating dialogue and creating meaningful connections, the Hub aims to foster lasting partnerships and sustainable business relationships across borders — reinforcing its role as a trusted bridge between Germany and the UK.

Statement from Alex Altmann, Founder & CEO German Business Hub
