The Federal Agency for Breakthrough Innovations SPRIND creates environments in which innovators can take risks and think radically out of the box.
Projects
Rethink, redo.
Our projects focus on turning visionary ideas into practice. Innovators work continuously on the development and implementation of ground-breaking solutions. Projects provide a long-term platform for intnsive research and development.
Challenges
A call for pioneers with world-changing ideas.
Our challenges are competitions that aim to solve specific problems within a set time frame. Creative minds compete against each other in teams to develop innovative solutions. In this way, effective results can be achieved dynamically.
SPRIND is not a funding provider and therefore has no funding guidelines. Funding guidelines require a standard program according to which any funding is granted. SPRIND, on the other hand, is a new type of instrument and aims to identify and support potential breakthrough innovations. This requires deviating from the standard and obtaining individual answers and solutions to questions and problems.
FINANCING
We want to support projects in the best possible way and therefore look for the right financing structure for each individual project.
COUNCIL AND ACT
For the further development of an idea we can bring in technological and entrepreneurial expertise. Our experts are successful founders and entrepreneurs themselves.
BUSINESS SERVICES
Very few founders are well positioned in all disciplines right from the start. Therefore we support – if necessary – in everything a business needs, e.g. in accounting, controlling, legal advice, product management or marketing.
TEAMBUILDING
If required, we help our innovators* to put together teams. We search, find, connect.
BUSINESS SERVICES
We provide an excellent network of science and business. A fruitful environment that offers both information and inspiration.
TAILOR-MADE COOPERATION
We have to standardize some processes in order to be efficient. The core of our work, however, is the personal interaction, the individual design of the cooperation.
Magazine
To the magazineWhether at events, as part of our projects and challenges or in the podcast. We talk to people with outstanding ideas - and listen carefully.
