consultation
Every business formation begins with an idea. We support you from the creation of an idea to the foundation of your company. No matter what phase of the company formation you are in, we are here for you.
1. Creating an idea
At the beginning of every company there is an idea and the desire for independence. Both are the starting point for your future success. We support you from the idea to the concept creation.
2. Planning
Planning is the most important part. The development of all elements of your business model is the focus. Let us support you in this. Either from the beginning or in between.
3. Financing
Financing is probably the step where most business start-ups fail. We support you and show you the possibilities of financial support.
4. Foundation
Once your business plan has been drawn up and financing has been secured, you can get down to business. We will be at your side as well. The adventure of self-employment can begin.
Our founder's guide with its 5 phases was developed to give you as a founder an overview of the next steps towards self-employment. A recommendation to you!
Feel free to contact us at any time: startupcampus@th-deg.de
You can also drop by our Startup Lab (Veilchengasse 2, 2nd floor).

Idea: With a shortage of skilled labour and a better work-life balance, we are facing two major changes in everyday working life that will inevitably require more productive employees in order to remain efficient. The root of greater productivity lies in good planning, and 2DAY is the perfect tool for this: A calendar that does some of the planning for you. With the help of dynamic planning, tasks are scheduled into your calendar according to priority and the time required. This prevents tasks from being forgotten according to the motto "out of sight, out of mind", and idle time between appointments can be reduced or planned. With useful collaboration features, we also ensure smooth collaboration between teams and third parties.

Idee: Die Energiewende stellt uns aktuell vor große Herausforderungen wie z. B. flukturierende Energieträger oder Netzüberlastung durch PV- und Windanlagen. Der Klimawandel erfordert eine grundlegende Umstellung der Energieversorgung in allen Bereichen. Mit unserem ecoTrailer stellen wir eine ortsunabhängige Stromversorgung aus erneuerbarer Energie zur Verfügung. Durch die Entwicklung eines innovativen Batteriemanagementsystems und die Verwendung von second-life Batterien, wird der ecoTrailer nachhaltig und kosteneffizient. Die Kapazität und die Leistung des ecoTrailers sind skalierbar, sodass sowohl eine Anwendung als netzunabhängige Stromversorgung, z.B. als Baustellenversorgung, als auch eine Verwendung als Großspeicher für PV-Parks zum Peak-Shaving möglich ist. Mit seiner großen Auswahl an Schnittstellen kann der ecoTrailer an unterschiedlichen, bestehenden Systemen, wie z. B. öffentliche Ladesäulen, PV-Parks, Windanlagen oder an das Hausnetz flexibel angebunden werden. Ein intelligentes, cloud-basiertes Monitoring ermöglicht die Steuerung und Überwachung per Fernzugriff.

Idee: Im Sommer zu heiß, im Winter zu kalt. Selten ist die Temperatur angenehm. Doch dies muss nun nicht mehr der Fall sein – Heizen und Kühlen per mobiler Unterlage bringt die richtige Temperatur an jeden Ort. Eine Innovation, die vielen Haustieren den Alltag erleichtern wird.
Wir sind das Geschwister-Team TiMa und entwickeln eine elektrisch heiz- und kühlbare Unterlage/Körbchen für Heimtiere. Gleichzusetzen ist dieses Projekt mit der komfortablen Sitzheizung und - klimatisierung eines PKW´s.
Die Bedienung der TiMa ist sowohl an der Unterlage selbst als auch per mobiler App möglich.
Mithilfe des Kickstart Inkubators wollen wir einen, in vollem Umfang funktionierenden Prototypen der Unterlage sowie eine benutzerfreundliche und leicht verständliche App zur Steuerung entwickeln.

Idea: Every day, millions of people use various means of transportation to get from point A to point B. However, this creates several problems that need to be addressed. Inefficient route planning results in the emission of avoidable greenhouse gases, which lead to increased environmental pollution. Furthermore, each transport operator provides its own booking platform, which makes collective booking of different means of transport for a trip massively more difficult.
To innovatively transform these problems and thus the travel market, we, the team at Plant My Trip, are developing a transportation search engine that calculates the most environmentally friendly travel route by intelligently combining all modes of transportation. To pay for the greenhouse gases that cannot be saved, there is also the possibility to create a transparent CO2 offset with an ECO partner of Plant My Trip, which further mitigates the environmental impact created.
To generate a flexible platform for the customer, the search engine was developed as an app for mobile devices. The app can also be used to simultaneously book all required means of transport and CO2 offsetting. This creates a holistic solution for passenger transportation that has a positive effect on the environment and for customers.

Idea: A normal combine harvester is currently used in the agricultural sector for harvesting industrial hemp. However, the industrial hemp is not harvested as gently as with our technology.
We have developed our own hydraulic front loader attachment for tractors specifically for harvesting the flowers and seeds of industrial hemp in a single process.
The gentle, innovative harvesting process works on the principle of combing. This involves tearing or stripping the flowers and seeds from the stalks. This is achieved by applying pressure to the crop and holding it in place while the combing drum brushes through the crop.
As part of the Kickstart Incubator, the existing prototype can be further developed so that it can be brought to market to make work easier for farmers.

Idea: Squadron helps solar parks achieve their optimal performance. It uses drones equipped with a gimbal control system to automatically adjust the vertical and horizontal angle of the compact high-resolution dual camera. A real-time image processing application is integrated in the control system to obtain high-quality radiometric images with accurate frames for PV modules. Thus, it is possible to detect all kinds of anomalies in the shortest time and with more precise results than with conventional inspection methods. An inspection with the Squadron drone creates a detailed overview of the solar farms, including energy and financial losses, localisation of all types of faults combined with digital twin technology to prioritise and facilitate access to all types of faults.

Idea: A constant companion that helps to manage the flood of information in everyday life. SpreadIt - the next generation note app - is designed to make this possible. Starting with the capture of a note, the AI-supported processing of additional information, the recording is analysed and stored in a meaningful and useful way for further processing. In the process, important annotations such as people, events, products or dates are automatically recognised and linked to each other or duplicates are identified. In addition, the note snippets are sorted and grouped using keywords. If desired, information can be shared within an organisation. In this way, a network of knowledge is created together, whereby everyone benefits and can make their contribution. The note app for an individual becomes a knowledge management system for the whole organisation step by step.
A tool to build up a realistic knowledge landscape in a sustainable way - for oneself and in the team.

Idea: Climate change is advancing and leading to a massive expansion of renewable energies globally. In Germany in particular, national climate targets are leading to increased decentralised renewable power plant concepts and a reduction in primary energy consumption. This necessary energy transition is leading to an increase in electricity applications. However, Germany has the highest (grid) electricity price for private households worldwide. Economically more lucrative decentralised power plant concepts are leading to an increase in private power plant operators, such as photovoltaic systems. This cheap local electricity is displacing expensive grid electricity.
Tradenergy uses software as an app to ensure that local electricity can be traded in a decentralised manner that is legally and technically secure. The tenant electricity model provides the basis. Surplus energy can thus be sold to third parties. The (future) decentralised electricity grid structure coupled with the increasing degree of electrification and expiring feed-in tariffs make this application inevitable.

Idea: OmnitorQ focuses on improvements to hand tools. Many tools have already undergone the transformation from ordinary purely mechanical tools to engineered solutions. One example is the evolution of the screwdriver into a cordless screwdriver. But not every hand tool has an engineered solution that supports the user in their work. That is why OmnitorQ concentrates on finding solutions for these tools. First, the start-up focuses on the functional principle of the open-ended spanner. The aim is to provide existing advantages of the tool with innovative technical solutions in order to achieve an increase in efficiency in the work to be carried out.

Idea: For immigrants and foreigners, it is very difficult and expensive to source their local products in Germany. Therefore, KulturCart is developing an e-commerce market for African, Asian and Latin American food and local products. Consumers can thus buy local products quickly, easier and cheaper. However, KulturCart is not only an online shop, but offers the possibility to get to know different cultures and provides information accordingly. The mission of Kulturcart is to create multiculturalism and diversity in Germany by giving everyone quick and easy access to international cuisine and information about cultures from all over the world.

Idea: TC3D has developed a process in additive manufacturing to produce coloured parts. More precisely, FFF 3D printing is combined with transfer printing in such a way that high-resolution images are transferred to one side of the components. Currently, 3D printers that can print in colour are still expensive and very limited in FFF printers. In this area, the only options are to use several coloured filaments in succession or to colour each layer with an inkjet print head. Special transfer ribbons now offer an alternative. Software combines the G-code (file for the 3D printer) with an image file and prints a toner layer on the transfer foil using a laser printer. This is then fixed on the heating bed of the 3D printer and the part is built up on the transfer foil. The toner is transferred from the foil to the polymer during the printing process. After cleaning the foil, it can be reused. The process has applications in the hobby sector and in industry.

Idea: XR|eality develops software application in the field of virtual reality and augmented reality in order to digitise teaching as a whole in a sustainable and steady way. Since 2020, the education system has been forcibly digitalised due to the Corona pandemic. One thing has always been certain: EdTech and the modification of many learning processes are of utmost importance for the teaching of the future. First of all, the start-up aims that its software, which is developed with Unity, will soon be found at universities.
Examples of the above-mentioned software applications are geographical explorations through numerous terrains or a planetarium to observe physical processes in our universe at close range. Working with geometric solids also lends itself to schools in the subject of mathematics. Pupils and students can thus immerse themselves in a virtual educational environment and experience learning in a new way.

Idea: The idea for Bison arose during the construction of the house, where socket connections often had to be laboriously separated due to corrections when laying KG pipes. An employee of the construction company complained that so far no tool has been offered for this constantly occurring problem. Bison is a simple tool with which even difficult-to-separate socket joints can be loosened quickly and safely by skilful, even distribution of force without damaging the pipes as well as the sockets. Bison saves time and energy for private users as well as considerable labour costs for companies.

Idea: Old machines often function perfectly, but their process cannot currently be digitally recorded and evaluated. About 85% of all processing machines currently in use (worldwide) are not able to provide operating states, machine parameters or processing information digitally.
For this reason, we - the MDE-Box team - are developing a new retrofit solution to digitally record and process machine data from existing machines in production. This data is generated via image signals of a graphical user interface, without retrofitting sensors. This enables machine data storage and analysis without intervening in the machine's hardware and/or software. The generated data is transferred to a database and transmitted via an online standard interface (e.g. OPC-UA) to the company's process control system (e.g. ERP, MES systems).
The recorded data allow, for example, conclusions to be drawn about the overall equipment effectiveness (OEE), downtimes, tool use and wear and the machining status. Thus, the entire machining/manufacturing process can be digitally mapped, interpreted and improved. Based on their own production data, this enables companies to better utilise their equipment and plan their processes. With our solution, companies can realise optimisation potential and increase the effectiveness of their production facilities in the long term.

Idea: Scob develops a platform where pupils can find orientation and discover interesting companies. We connect these two parties in an efficient ways and can therefore provide companies with suitable potential trainees who, through sufficient information, make an informed decision and thus provide the company with long-term, motivated added value. Scob distinguishes itself from other online offers through its innovative approach to career orientation using orientation tests and the visualisation of companies in a three-dimensional world, thus ensuring the best possible and manageable information on the student side and a solid presentation of the company on the company side. The orientation tests are implemented with the help of a neural network, which is an approach that does not yet exist on our market. We develop the three-dimensional professional world with Unity (a software for visualisation in three-dimensional space). Such a professional world does not yet exist.

Idea: in the project a 360° video drone is being developed, whereby the drone itself is not visible in the video material. This drone is specially designed for indoor shots. Due to its small size (LxWxH approx. 20x20x5 cm) and its equally low weight of less than 250g, it is able to fly through small openings, windows or shelves on the one hand, and over sensitive places close to people without any problems on the other hand. This opens up completely new perspectives, as at indoor sports events you can fly past the athletes very closely and with outstanding agility and speed, or at dance events you can even fly between the feet of the dancers. Due to its size and inertia, such shots are currently not possible with other 360° drones (e.g. www.spherie.com) and make the project unique. In addition, as the 250g limit in Germany is no longer legally required for the model aircraft to fly in the field of vision, i.e. the pilot is no longer visible on the photographs, which offers the potential for new types of user experiences

Idea: In cooperation with the Application Laboratory Industry 4.0 of the Deggendorf Institute of Technology, ti4f has developed a strategy to digitalise the processes in tool and mould making. The processes of the highly complex one-off production can be analysed with the help of the Process Explorer and process bottlenecks can be detected. With the help of the self-learning knowledge database working in the background, strategies for process optimisation can be generated. The learning management system is intended to provide customers with digital process knowledge at the right time in order to be able to network the process across departmental boundaries. Since digitalisation can only be implemented at a slower pace without support, ti4f provides a moderated online community.

Idea: Fresh vegetables from one's own garden have many advantages, but taking care of the vegetable patch always requires an immense amount of time. The start-up SEPP has the vision of creating a self-sufficient garden in which the time you can or want to spend is no longer the limiting factor for the harvest quantity. The vegetable garden robot SEPP (Smart Efficient Plant Production) takes over the work steps "watering" and "weeding" necessary for vegetable cultivation, for which there is often no time or motivation. The dream of having your own vegetable garden is therefore no longer a question of time.

These aspects of setting up a business are explained theoretically in the course of the implementation in order to put the new knowledge into practice in a team on their own start-up idea.
