For start-ups, founders and SMEs
At Fraunhofer, we develop innovative technologies every day, which originate in state-of-the-art research facilities. As a founder, you can benefit from these technologies by saving not only time, but also valuable resources! Are you still missing the right technology for your product vision? Then we can help you with our Tech-Matching!
And this is how it works:
1. You tell us your technology needs (e.g. a special process, a special material, a specific component...).
2. We will find the right component for you from the 75 Fraunhofer Institutes, as well as the scientific expert for it.
3. Together you can qualify for the COLAB Accelerator.
