About Grünhof

It all started in 2013, when we decided that Freiburg needed a place where entrepreneurs and innovators can collaborate to create projects and bring them into the world together. Due to our resounding success, we’ve continued teaming up with partners to bring more and more projects to life ever since.

Our values

We are ambitious

We have extremely high standards for our work. In each and every one of our projects we channel our collective know-how, experience and creativity so that the things we touch become successful.

We are fair

We are honest, open and transparent with colleagues, customers and partners. We have no hidden agenda and are open in recognizing our challenges and blind spots.

We are brave

We dare to think big. And we like to take risks – something that allows us to reinvent ourselves constantly.

We are committed

We are deeply convinced that the world can become (even) better if we all look out for each other and our planet.

We are real

Personality and professionalism don‘t contradict each other in our eyes. We bring our unique selves to our projects, show who we are and speak our minds clearly and respectfully.

We do it
together

We believe in the power of collaboration. Internally, we work in self-organized teams and in unique constellations of actors externally.

We are funny

Good humor really matters to us. We laugh the loudest at ourselves. And the best evenings are the ones where our bellies are aching. IDIOM?!?
