EXIST-Forschungstransfer
Support for research-based startups

The EXIST research transfer supports you in an outstanding research-based startup project that involves complex and high-risk development work. The funding is divided into two phases: In the first funding phase, support is provided for the development of research results that have the potential to form the basis of a business startup. In the second funding phase, the focus is on further development work, measures to start up business operations and the creation of the prerequisites for corporate financing. In addition, measures for the transfer of management knowledge and support in the startup process are also funded.
