Something special is coming.

 

The official opening on November 10 at TRIANGEL marks the start of the first Entrepreneurship Festival at KIT. Together, we’re entering a new era of entrepreneurship and exploring what the future holds for founders, researchers, and students.

 

What to expect:

 

18:00 – 18:30 | Get-Together

Arrive, meet fellow participants, and connect with the KIT entrepreneurship community before the official programme begins.

 

18:30 – 19:00 | BUILD WHAT’S NEXT

Together with Stefan Quandt and Prof. Dr. Jan S. Hesthaven, we’ll look back at the evolution of entrepreneurship at KIT, unveil the new brand, and introduce the New Home of Entrepreneurship.

 

19:00 – 19:30 | Founder Success Story: “Action produces Information”

Sven Körner, Founder of thingsTHINKING and Vice President at Aleph Alpha, shares how cutting-edge research, technology transfer, and an idea born at KIT can grow into a successful company.

 

From 19:30 | Drinks & Networking

Enjoy drinks, finger food, and the opportunity to exchange ideas, make new connections, and continue the conversations.

 

An evening for everyone who wants to shape entrepreneurship, research, innovation, and technology transfer at KIT – and take the next step together.
