On this rainy, cold February day, Munich's creative quarter at Leonrodplatz exudes a slightly derelict charm. Yet, this is the source of Munich's creative future. A lot is set to happen in this 20-hectare area in the coming years.<\/strong><\/p>\n

J\u00fcrgen Enninger has also recently moved here; he is the head of the Competence team for the cultural and creative industries of the city of Munich<\/a><\/strong>Munich Startup visited him and his team.

Although the industry is very well positioned, Munich is growing above average and Munich ranks first in Europe, as a recently published study showed: There is still a lot of work to be done for the competence team.<\/p>\n
