Setting the foundation: Successful completion of the Qualification Program of the ICM Early Ride Program!

- News

We are happy to announce that the participants of the Qualification Program have successfully completed their journey!

Over the past three weeks, these talented PhD candidates and post-docs and master students from research institutions in Baden-Württemberg have explored the potential of their innovative ideas and sparked their entrepreneurial spirits. 

Our program, designed to incubate early-stage innovation projects with a strong focus on mobility and production, provides them with the skills and tools necessary to transform their Hashtag#research into viable business opportunities. Participants learn to think entrepreneurially, discover market potentials, and leverage them for success. 

What's next? 

The journey doesn't end here! We will continue with the second phase, the ICM Early Ride Program, this September. This next phase will focus further on identifying customer problems, developing scalable business models, understanding the financing landscape and crafting compelling pitches for customers and investors. 

Deadline to apply for the ICM Early Ride Program: August 22, 2024.
You can apply even if you did not participate in the Qualification Phase!
