Science drives innovation - in technology, business and society. For research to have a sustained impact, practical application and knowledge transfer are becoming increasingly important. Public funding bodies expect clear strategies for implementing the results as early as the application stage. At the same time, innovations open up new research fields and industry collaborations.

As a central contact point for researchers, we offer comprehensive advice and support for funding measures with targeted commercialisation strategies:

Validation funding – harnessing research potential

Not every research result is immediately ripe for the market. Validation funding helps to assess and demonstrate innovation potential and to identify suitable fields of application. Successful validation reduces the risk for external investors and facilitates the next stage of development.

Business cooperation – synergies between research and industry

Collaborative projects enable research institutions and companies to work together on scientific challenges. These synergies create innovative solutions and commercial opportunities. Numerous funding programs support such collaborations.

Startup support –  from idea to startup

The Berlin startup network Science & Startups supports science-based startups and strengthens the innovative power of research.
