Academia and start-ups - at the first glance two different universes. Fast-paced entrepreneurship, investment, business strategy, development, the dream of a successful exit. In contrast: publications, grants, charts, tubes, endless acronyms and academic degrees.
Yet we also have much in common. ► For example, our experts also dream of inventing something that will make a real difference to the world. And sometimes they succeed!
Find out how you can use the world of academia to kick-start your own business!
The University is a large and complex institution. To help you to get to know it better, there is a team of people who can work as your guide. We are the Centre for Knowledge and Technology Transfer - interpreters between two different galaxies.
What do we do? ► We connect our scientists and students with external partners: companies, non-profit organizations or public institutions.
The University is brimming with unique know-how and ideas for innovation. And we look for practical applications for our researchers' inventions. Perhaps also in collaboration with enthusiasts from the startup environment. Perhaps with you!
