Berlin’s Startup Scene #7 Sygns

As the capital of a country known for world-class industrial strength, Berlin is Germany’s famous laggard in terms of capital and labor. But what it lacks in traditional industry, it makes up for with innovative startups. Our special video series takes a look at eight companies helping to transform the “poor but sexy” city into a darling of Germany Inc. This week we take a look at Sygns, a startup providing handmade neon word art installations for a niche market.
