This seems interesting, but I have one question: what about taxes?

Any tax breaks for tech startups? what about employee/healthcare costs?

Almost no tax breaks for startups, and healthcare and employee taxes are regulated very closely to normal German laws. Shockingly, recently the govt seems to have decided that angel investors and even founders will not be eligible for certain tax breaks, and instead will be taxed on income tax level for capital gains.
