Services & Events

Services

Our local teams offer a wide range of services to support you and your startup or company. We address startups and teams interested in making contacts to establish their startup in the region or further develop their products. Teams from Central German universities can be matched with international co-founders. International startups get access to local companies and the innovation ecosystem. For this purpose, the universities contribute as door openers for research-based startups. The universities base their network on established academic and research relationships with other universities and their startup ecosystems, international institutions, and companies.
