“You never stop learning – and entrepreneurship is always individual.” Building a start-up is an incredible journey - but it’s also filled with challenges that no founder should face alone. That’s where XPRENEURS comes in. Take it from Sascha, founder of encosa, who joined XPRENEURS not once, but twice - first in Batch #1 with Evum Motors and again in Batch #16. Why? Because the value of the program goes far beyond its 3 months.

The European Space Agency (ESA) and UnternehmerTUM, are launching the ESA Business Accelerator Germany together with TUM Venture Lab Aerospace and acitoflux. The program is aimed at highly innovative German scale-ups, i.e. fast-growing companies, in the space industry. The goal is to strengthen the competitiveness of the German space industry through individual support in the areas of business model development, market penetration, and financing. The program starts immediately in Munich with representations in Stuttgart and Hamburg.

We’re thrilled to announce our new programme partner, EIT Manufacturing — a pioneering initiative co-funded by the EU. Together with TUM Venture Labs Additive Manufacturing, we will support early-stage start-ups and spinoffs with cutting-edge technologies addressing key manufacturing needs.

Google Cloud has partnered with UnternehmerTUM to support the XPRENEURS high-tech start-up program, providing mentorship, workshops, and $25,000 in cloud credits for participating start-ups. This collaboration aims to foster innovation and support diverse talent.

Batch #15 has finally come out of stealth mode on Demo Day! We are thrilled to present to you the 20 start-ups who got to present their businesses to an excited audience of investors, mentors, and industry experts yesterday.
