Matching service

More value creation with digital business models

The active matching of users of digital technologies in industry, SMEs and administration on the one hand and suitable young digital companies and IT SMEs on the other is one of our key concerns. Among other things, we promote the further development of your business model with regard to customer centricity and digital value creation. The result is the best possible collaborations, joint ventures, digital start-ups and digital business models in the Aachen Area. In the course of our first year in the digitalCHURCH, we have already been able to initiate over 100 successful matches.
