Heidelberger Innovationsforum

Since 2005, the Heidelberg Innovation Forum has succeeded in bringing together IT researchers and market players in the early phases of innovation. The goal of the event is to support technology licensing and start-up funding and improve cooperation between research institutes and business enterprises.

More than 380 start-ups and developers from ten countries have already presented their ideas at previous events and can testify to the success of the concept. Over half were able to forge promising contacts with investors and decision-makers in the business scene.

Through the Heidelberg Innovation Forum, MFG Baden-Württemberg together with its partner, the European Media Laboratory GmbH, supports businesses and researchers with the aim of initiating business contacts and transfers such as licensing, start-up funding or research collaborations.
