I am always amazed at how many different startup solutions the high-quality scouting report from 5-HT can provide us with and the valuable contacts that develop from it. The highly efficient and well thought-out 5-HT process with individual pitch sessions, alignment and engagement workshops is also impressive and has brought us successful partnerships.

What I appreciate about working with 5-HT is the openness and firm belief in "open innovation", the fact that 5-HT responds flexibly and imaginatively to requests and topics and that 5-HT does not resign itself to the status quo, but firmly believes in the power of change.

We have been working with 5-HT for a few years now. The main benefit is the access to the ecosystem and the ideas of 5-HT employees on how to collaborate with the startups. When we have internal events, we have colleagues from 5-HT attending them and providing their insights into the ecosystem which benefits our Lilly colleagues which are not familiar with this digital space.

Why 5-HT?

Serotonin, also known as 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT), is a neurotransmitter that transmits information in the nervous system. 5-HT describes both the chemical character of the messenger as well as its biological mode of action as a neurotransmitter and stands for the networking activities to enable information exchange and collaboration in a specific, targeted, and fast way.

Digital Hub Initiative

5-HT is part of the Digital Hub Initiative of the German Federal Ministry of Economics and Climate Action. The initiative aims to enhance startup ecosystems in Germany and Europe by supporting progress in various areas and fostering the successful development and implementation of startup solutions.
