Innovation happens together. UnternehmerTUM connects science, universities, politics, foundations, and supporters so that ideas turn into companies.
Technical University of Munich
Together with the Technical University of Munich (TUM), we support students, researchers, aspiring founders, and startups in turning their business ideas into reality. TUM and UnternehmerTUM work under one roof at the Entrepreneurship Center on the Garching research campus.
The TUM Entrepreneurship Research Institute feeds its research directly into our startup support. TUM Venture Consulting, a joint offering of TUM and UnternehmerTUM, guides students and researchers from the first idea to market entry.
Universities and Entrepreneurship Centers
We work with universities and entrepreneurship centers around the world, from Stockholm to Singapore. This allows us to connect people, advance joint projects, and open up an international network for startups.
Ministries, Institutions, and Cities
How can we secure prosperity and Germany’s position as a business location? How can cities become smarter, more sustainable, and more livable? We tackle these questions together with ministries, institutions, and municipalities, such as the Bavarian State Government, the European Institute of Innovation & Technology (EIT), and the City of Munich, with which we operate the Munich Urban Colab.
Foundations
For many years, we have worked with foundations that drive social innovation. Together, we develop education and training programs for entrepreneurial and technical talent and initiate projects on topics such as digital education, health, leadership, and sustainability. UnternehmerTUM is a member of the Stifterverband für die Deutsche Wissenschaft.
Examples: In the XLab CleanTech Track of the XPRENEURS Incubator, we work with the Vector Stiftung to help researchers bring cleantech technologies from the lab to the market. The Leadership Talent Academy is a program by the Karl Schlecht Stiftung to develop “Good Leadership”. The [X] MakerSpace Scholarship by the Zeidler-Forschungs-Stiftung gives STEM students free access to MakerSpace.
