Startup program

In our startup program, we support young teams from pitch to pilot. Together, we test ideas, validate assumptions, and develop initial prototypes. Through our testbeds and partner networks, we provide access to schools, markets, and didactics.

Client venturing

As an early-stage reference client, we test new technologies in paid pilot projects – hands-on, fair, and transparent. Startups benefit from early market feedback, while we gain a knowledge edge. Projects are implemented through a service contract with clearly defined outcomes.

Licence model or white-label cooperation

We license new technologies and platforms from our partners and integrate them into marketable educational offers under our own brand. This creates real-life application scenarios and development opportunities – with technical integration, didactic embedding, and access to diverse learner groups.

Our partnerships

Together with startups and technology partners, we develop new educational solutions – in real learning environments, with access to target groups, platforms, specialist knowledge and space for co-development.
