Bringing the experiments one step further with the ECHORD++ Booster Programme

Technology transfer “from lab to market!” has always been our mission, but successful market introduction remains a challenge in many cases. Valley of death, norms and regulatory compliance, product qualification, etc are just a few of the obstacles that need to be overcome. To support our partners in going from great technology to a great product we have created the ECHORD++ Experiment Booster Programme:

Designed to propel the great technology of our Experiments, the Booster Programme provides tailor-made support for the selected Experiments with a sharp focus on their concrete needs. All ECHORD++ Experiments were invited to apply for the Booster Programme, offering personalized coaching and mentoring, a market driven incubation programme focused on science and R&D and/or an accelerator programme, bringing tech- startups together with industry partners.

The programme was designed in concertation with the experiments themselves and UnternehmerTUM, which will provide support in market analysis and business plan refinement, entrepreneurship coaching, IP support, help in negotiating the treacherous waters of certification, and much more.

The three lucky experiments selected for the programme are:

EXOtrainer

MODUL

SAGA
