Presentation of Games Cluster NRW 2026

Experience exclusively how Games Syndicate Cologne e.V., together with Startplatz Köln, is driving the development of a new games cluster for Cologne and NRW. Our goal: From 2026, an innovative, large office community will be created in the heart of Cologne’s creative industries in a co-working model, tailor-made for companies, start-ups and freelancers from the games and e-sports industry. You can expect modern workspaces, flexible rental conditions, community areas and numerous amenities tailored to the specific requirements of the industry – from infrastructure and events to targeted knowledge exchange and networking.

This specialist event will provide you with a transparent overview of all conditions, offers and added value. We will present the concept of the new GamesCluster to you in detail and show you how you can benefit directly from synergies from the close cooperation between Startplatz and Games Syndicate Cologne. During the guided tour of the planned areas, you can get a live impression of the future work and meeting spaces.

We will also present the planned program for community building and internal formats such as Campfire, which offer exclusive opportunities for exchange and networking. In an open Q&A session, the Games Syndicate Cologne and Startplatz teams as well as contact persons from KölnBusiness will be available to answer all your detailed questions about the cluster, membership, space and usage options.

Take this opportunity to position yourself as part of this strong network at an early stage. Participation is of course free of charge. Find out more, make valuable contacts and actively shape the future of the games and e-sports location Cologne and NRW.
