OUR CORE TOPICS

Research institutions are sitting on tech that could change everything, but most of it never leaves the building. Working with scientists at Fraunhofer HHI, we spotlight breakthrough technologies and invite founders to build startups around them.

If your startup is working in or around one of our CORE Topic fields, it could be a strong fit. Each topic is limited to two startups. Once both spots are filled, the opportunity closes.

GO OFF TOPIC

Not every startup fits a CORE Topic. Use our tool, Paper Pulse, to search Fraunhofer HHI papers and show us what you want to build with. If it’s a strong case, we’re in. Startups can apply using the same form as CORE topics use, but instead selecting and linking to the relevant research paper to your idea. Off-topic submissions are reviewed less frequently, so responses may take more time.
