A Focus on Start-Ups: Rutronik24 Establishes Team to Support Innovative Companies

Hong Kong, China, February 21, 2019 /ChinaNewswire.com/ - Rutronik24, the sales organization of Rutronik Elektronische Bauelemen-te GmbH, set up a dedicated team called #8222;BaseCamp“ to focus on start-ups, dealing exclusively with the needs and projects of young, innovative companies. In addition to supplying components, the team also offers comprehensive and individually tailored consulting services.

To Andrea Bissinger, Director Sales Global at Rutronik24, supporting start-ups is only logical: “Rutronik24 fo-cuses on small and medium-sized companies with corresponding needs – so start-ups are precisely our target audience. All of our processes are tailored exactly to their requirements. This allows us to support young entre-preneurs and their projects with customized solutions. Thanks to our large network, this not only includes the required components and consulting services, but we also help put them in touch with suitable partners, such as for production, marketing and sales” says Bissinger. This is why Rutronik24 participates in festivals such as Innolution Valley, the Hannover Messe trade show, and various start-up events in order to network and build relationships with interested partners.

A new button has been added to www.rutronik24.com that allows start-ups to contact the sales organization’s newly formed start-up team directly. Marek Fuchs, Team Leader Field Sales at Rutronik24, is the first point of contact for founders and leads the three-person team. “I like to try out new things myself and enjoy thinking outside the box – and that goes for our entire team. We look forward to collaborating with start-ups from a variety of sectors in new ways and hopefully helping them both bring their product to market and make their company a success.”
