In conversation with Munich startups: Day 2 at Bits & Pretzels

No startup fair without founders: We visited the startup exhibition at this year's Bits & Pretzels to talk to some young Munich entrepreneurs about their ideas and impressions.

Finding, comparing and ordering car spare parts – this is what AuteonThe Munich-based startup was founded in 2019, and the platform, as it exists today, has been in existence for two years. Auteon's target audience is automotive repair shops, who can use the Munich-based startup's product to compare automotive parts from their wholesalers. Bettina Göbel from Auteon explains: "Comparing spare parts isn't that easy because dealer portals are all highly protected, and as a workshop, you have individual terms and conditions. A proper comparison portal for prices and availability hasn't existed until now. That's why we're doing it now." This is not a simple market, as Göbel emphasizes: “The market is incredibly complex, incredibly difficult, and also a bit outdated in certain areas.” What can help? A good network. That's precisely why Auteon is represented at this year's Bits. But that's not all: they're also looking for investors: "We're planning our Series A next year and are constantly looking for connections, including strategic partners. We're always happy to exchange ideas regarding the automotive industry." (Photo: Munich Startup)
