About us

Ever wanted to try out new apps and products before everyone else?

Welcome to Product Night Cologne!

We’re bringing together people who love discovering new ideas, meeting interesting people, and trying out products built by local startups.

Instead of sitting through endless presentations and startup pitches, you get to actually try things out, talk directly to the founders, and share your honest feedback.

You don’t need to be a developer, entrepreneur, or tech expert to join. Everyone is welcome!

Our events take place at STARTPLATZ Cologne, where we bring together startups and curious people for a relaxed evening with hands-on product testing, networking, free pizza, and drinks.

Come by, meet new people, discover something interesting, and help local startups build better products!

Featured event

STARTPLATZ Product Night #1 | Try New Apps, Meet Startups & Free Pizza

Thu, Oct 22 · 6:00 PM CEST

STARTPLATZ, Mediapark 5, Köln, DE

Hey Cologne!

I’m Robin, a local startup founder, and I’m organizing the very first STARTPLATZ Product Night on October 22nd!

The idea is simple: Bring together a few local startups, let everyone try out their products, and have a fun evening with interesting people, free pizza, and drinks.

I’ve attended quite a few startup events myself, and I wanted to create something a little different.

No endless pitches or presentations. Instead, up to six startups will showcase their apps, software, or prototypes, and you’ll get to actually try them out and tell the founders what you think.

What to expect:

Try out new apps, software, and startup products
Meet local founders and developers
Share your feedback and help improve their products
Connect with interesting people from Cologne
Enjoy free pizza and drinks!

Who’s welcome?

Absolutely everyone!

You don’t need to have any technical knowledge or startup experience. In fact, feedback from people outside the tech world is often the most valuable.

Whether you’re into startups, curious about technology, looking to meet new people, or just want to spend a relaxed evening trying something new, feel free to join us!
