Student Accelerator

Hanover Region

In the " Student Accelerator - Engineering Innovations " initiative, students can gain their first real-life experience in the field of spin-offs/start-ups in teams of their own choosing. They are taught the basics of business plans and company presentations and develop a business idea from the engineering environment in close cooperation with a supervisor and external professionals from the field of entrepreneurship. If the team is convincing at the first pitch and thus reaches the second round, it receives a financial innovation voucher to implement an initial (software or hardware) prototype. In the two-semester program, the Student Accelerator enables the students to found and acquire follow-up or start-up financing, e.g. the provision of an EXIST start-up grant funded by the federal government (BmWK).
