FAQs: The Handover of betahaus | Neukölln

With a very heavy heart, we are stepping away from betahaus | Neukölln at the end of August 2021.

This FAQ has been updated on 24 Aug 2021

Like many businesses that rely on people, events, and community, the pandemic has had a big impact on our operations and the Neukölln location has become unsustainable.


As part of an agreement with the property owners, we have made the painful decision to hand over our space in Neukölln to the property management company core ImmobilienManagement (cIM). After this date, the space will no longer operate as part of betahaus.

When is the handover? Why is this announcement so sudden?

The handover will take place on 31 August 2021. Negotiations with the property owners have been ongoing for some time, however, we were only able to reach a binding agreement today.


We hoped that we’d be able to make this announcement a lot sooner. Unfortunately, we were only able to share this update with our community now.


What does the handover mean for current members?

Both sides are working hand in hand to ensure a smooth transition. However, we would like to underscore that betahaus will no longer be responsible for managing the space. Should you wish to continue working at the Neukölln location, you have the opportunity to negotiate a new contract with the property management company cIM.

Your new point of contact is Mrs Astrid Kern; you can write her an Email at: a.kern@core-berlin.de.


How does the transition impact my future at the betahaus | Neukölln location? What about cancellation?

If you are renting a separate Team Space and would like to stay in the building...

My business address is registered at betahaus | Neukölln. How can I update this?

To ensure you keep receiving mail during the transition, you'll need to update your address for both letters and packages to our Kreuzberg location:


Rudi-Dutschke-Straße 23, 10969 Berlin

And please make sure to include ‘"c/o betahaus."


You should also contact DHL and order a “Postnachsendeauftrag” for your own company.


What do I need to do to move out? What can I do with my furniture or monitors during the move?

ALL personal items need to be removed from the building or risk being thrown away by 31 August 2021.  If you aren’t able to remove your items by then, please contact frontdesk.nk@betahaus.de and we’ll work to find a solution for you.

If you have any more questions, please write an email to handoverNK@betahaus.de or come to our Open Forum with the betahaus founders and representatives from cIM on Wednesday, 18 August at 3pm at betahaus Neukölln in 0C.
