What are the challenges faced by women in the Tech sector? How can we increase the number of female tech founders and create a sustainable start-up and innovation scene? In TECHimpulse, we want to discuss this and more with successful women from the tech industry, with a focus on Africa. Join us on September 23, 2024 at 5 p.m. (CET).

What initiatives should companies take to strengthen innovation? How do start-ups benefit from participating in corporate accelerator programs? In June, we talked in the virtual TECHimpulse about programs that both revitalize the start-up ecosystem and bring fresh and innovative ideas to companies.

Together with our partner Co-Creation Hub, we discussed the importance of technology transfer and commercialization of research at the end of May 2024. At the virtual roundtable, we spoke with IP specialists from Ghana, South Africa, Kenya, and Germany about opportunities, experiences, strategies, and best practices.

All KIT Master students and academics can now apply for the TECHucate module! The two-week program offers insights into the Egyptian start-up ecosystem and helps to develop own projects in an intercultural environment (including a trip to Egypt!).

At the end of the TECHgrow module, founders from Egypt visited Germany to discuss technology transfer, build networks and explore the potential for innovation here and in Egypt.

The 5 winners of the Rally Accelerate competition in Egypt have been announced! In November 2023 we will welcome the finalists at KIT.
