I work for Volkswagen Financial Services and we actually opened up a completely new department in Berlin (VWFS is usually in Braunschweig) mostly to get closer to the world of startups and interact with them. So it _is_ reaching the big companies here, the Volkswagen Group is starting to have a lot of new departments here in Berlin. It's awesome to see because there are a lot of motivated people within the brand that want to work like this. It also seems like the minds of our managers are changing on the topic and they quite enjoy what we're doing here so far.
