Building Improvements for Beginners


Explanation:
This appears to be the name of a feature at the trade show, where those interested in starting building improvement/renovation projects can receive advice from exhibitors, along with a "Starterhilfe-Folder". See reference for more details (p. 8).

Getting started with a home upgrade


Explanation:
or 'Getting started with home improvements'; 'Upgrading homes: first steps'. I like 'upgrade' as it is often used in the context of increasing energy efficiency which is what this trade show is about.

I don't think there's any focus on novice customers and "launch" is too specific for our purposes. Also, the English equivalent would probably be less formal than the German in this context.
