The Chair of Entrepreneurship welcomes you!
If you are interested in innovation-based start-ups, can imagine developing your own start-up or would like to test your research findings for start-up or transfer potential - then you have come to the right place. We sensitise, qualify and accompany those interested in founding a company or start-up projects in the development and growth phase. On the one hand through the teaching of entrepreneurship skills as part of the teaching modules and through the research activities of the professorship, and on the other hand through the offers of TECUP / garage33, the Paderborn University's start-up centre. Through evidence-based knowledge transfer, we will enable you to develop sustainable business models from ideas and test them experimentally in the garage33 field laboratory and in real start-up projects. The aim is to give you the opportunity to set up your own business.
TECUP I garage33
Whether you already have a start-up idea or not - if you are interested in start-ups, then we are the right contact for you. Our aim is to support students and academics on their path to self-employment and to continuously strengthen the start-up culture at Paderborn University and in the OWL start-up ecosystem.
garage33, as an innovation quarter for those interested in founding a company and start-up projects at Paderborn University, is a place of exchange and inspiration. Here you can not only receive valuable resources and support, but also meet like-minded people and work together on innovative projects. We qualify you through our entrepreneurship programmes (e.g. Ideation, Incubation or Acceleration), coach you individually on your start-up project, network you in a targeted manner (e.g. as part of our Business Angel Network OWL) and much more in order to expand your skills and knowledge in the field of start-ups in a targeted manner and to accompany you into your start-up future as well prepared as possible.
We look forward to getting to know you and working with you to achieve your goals. Visit us at garage33 and find out more about the opportunities we have in store for you. Your journey into the world of innovation and start-ups begins here.
