In our rapidly changing economic world, new, innovative business ideas are in demand. They help us to master challenges and shape the future in a sustainable way. At the Hochschule-Bonn-Rhein-Sieg in particular, there are many researchers and students who have solutions to problems in our society with their expertise, creativity and innovative flair.

Do you have an innovative idea that you would like to implement, but you lack the financial and professional support for a successful start? Or have you already founded your own start-up and would be happy to receive additional resources?

Then the H-BRS Start-up Manufaktur ideas competition is just the thing for you. The Start-up Cup aims to discover new, innovative start-up ideas and award prizes to successful start-up projects in order to further promote the start-up culture at the university.
