Corporate Entrepreneurship

Foundation from companies

We bring corporates together with start-ups and students to create innovative ideas together.

"Strength lies in difference, not in similarities."

Stephen R. Covey

We enable companies to successfully shape digitalization and establish their own corporate start-ups in unknown markets. We bring young and wild people from the OWL university landscape together with employees in a creative innovation quarter to work on disruptive business ideas and their implementation.

Through innovative and agile methods, employees learn the tools to defy the uncertainty and novelty of new business areas and to shape product development cycles iteratively. From idea development to proof of concept to product-market fit, we provide you with individual and comprehensive support.

01 SYNC - Space for creativity

We bring together companies, start-ups, industry experts and students. garage33 offers the opportunity to learn from each other, develop new perspectives, exchange ideas and network. Together we explore new trends, fields of action and common interests in our thriving regional innovation ecosystem.

02 DESIGN - Methods for innovative ideas

We help companies to identify new ideas and business models and give internal projects new momentum. In doing so, we create awareness among employees throughout the company and also enable individual project teams to explore customer-centric project ideas. The dynamic innovation landscape harbors change and so we have set ourselves the goal of training multipliers in your company in order to master the digital transformation and shape a sustainable culture of innovation.

03 BUILD - Projects for market-relevant innovations

Many companies have ideas and concepts, but innovation also involves implementation. Established companies often fall prey to their previous success by constantly having their corporate glasses on and resting on their technological leadership. For us, vision and individual customer-centered implementation are important. As part of "off-campus" projects, we develop your next innovation idea together in 3 to 6 months using the lean startup method. We develop growth markets, explore underlying problems and thus promote product-market fit.
