Hochschule Mannheim has invited Sonja Wilkens from the City of Mannheim Startup Consulting who is for about 15 years now in startup consultancy. Furthermore there will be Marc Huber from Opal Analytics. He will tell his story and how he particularly benefitted from the startup ecosystem atmosphere in Mannheim.
The event takes place on 30 March from 5 pm to 6:30 pm and is accessible through this link.
The funding program ”young innovators” supports young researchers from universities, non-academic research institutions and academies in developing and selling innovative products and business models. Fundable is the preparation for setting up a start-up that deals with innovative products, procedures or services, e.g. inventions, software or other technological know-how.
The program includes consulting and other support as well as a constant funding and income comparable with a permanent post-doc position. That is about to offer an alternative to a regular uni contract to enable researchers starting over with their ideas. As a long-term target the program tries to ease knowledge and technology transfer from academic and research institutions into business. Therefor it particularly aims at potential founders who were benefitting from other funding before that is about to end.
The next funding is open for application until 29 March. For more info follow the link.
