— How it works

Leadership demand emerges where things move

The Growth Radar observes corporate turning points in the DACH region: a funding round, a new plant, an acquisition or a restructuring. Each of these events is an early indicator of executive demand — often months before a role is officially advertised.

The signals come from publicly available RSS sources and insolvency announcements, are summarized in our own wording and editorially reviewed before publication. For each signal the radar indicates the likely hiring implications — clearly labelled as an assessment, not a factual claim.

For HR leaders and advisors the radar is a timing tool: it shows which companies are entering a phase in which leadership roles are newly created or refilled.

Questions & answers

What does the Growth Radar show?

The Growth Radar captures funding rounds, expansions, M&A and restructurings of companies in the DACH region and translates each signal into an assessment: which leadership roles are likely to be filled in the next 6 to 12 months?

Where do the signals come from?

From publicly available RSS sources such as Startbase, deutsche-startups.de, EU-Startups and press-release feeds, plus public insolvency announcements. Facts are summarized in our own wording, every signal links to the original source and is editorially reviewed before publication.

What does 'hiring implication' mean?

For each signal the radar indicates which roles it tends to create — e.g. a VP Engineering after a Series A, or a Chief Restructuring Officer in a restructuring. These implications are assessments based on signal type and company phase, not factual claims about specific vacancies.

Is the radar a full market survey?

No. The Growth Radar is a curated selection of relevant DACH signals, not an exhaustive market survey, and contains no investment information or valuation of companies as an investment.
