Founders Forge
and Vision
I got to know many useful tools on the team. This allows me to create prototypes and click dummies as a non-computer-science engineer. The work at the Foundersclub was the main inspiration for the lecture "Entrepreneurial Finance", which I gave for the first time with Prof. Lengsfeld in WS18/19. And the work of the association was also beneficial for my application to ETH.
Especially us media students in particular encounter an industry that is overrun by innovations and changes rapidly - the perfect opportunity to create the jobs of tomorrow for ourselves. In the Foundersclub, creative people and innovators meet and turn ideas into reality. Every day I benefit from this network of people who want to help shape the future in a positive way.
The association offered me the opportunity to develop my own projects. I was helped by the trusting atmosphere and the honest feedback. I particularly like the fact that ideas are exchanged at eye level. It really made me want to use my IT knowledge to solve problems from other departments.
“The Foundersclub Freiburg is a committed initiative by students for students, which has set itself the goal of inspiring those interested in founding a company with young ideas in an interdisciplinary way and at eye level, and introducing them to the exciting world of start-ups. In this way, FoundersClub Freiburg contributes to a lively, diverse and inspiring start-up culture in Freiburg.”
“By founding two start-up initiatives and co-founding the umbrella organization of all student start-up initiatives, Gründermagnet, I got to know important key elements and contacts that were essential for the later success of my own start-up. I also received the first investment for JobUFO from a fellow Gründermagnet alumni and current business angel.”
“With the BadenCampus, we have created a unique platform in Breisach to promote innovation and start-ups that is both internationally and regionally anchored. We are therefore particularly pleased about the projects and the impressive influence of Freiburg's FoundersClub on the regional start-up scene. In addition to the “Start-up Impulses” and the “Start-up Lab”, the FoundersClub is the best possible regional preparation for our “Start-up Accelerator.”
“The FoundersClub Freiburg offers innovative formats that focus on the further education and networking of students with experienced company founders. The student initiative thus makes an important contribution to technology transfer from the University of Freiburg to industry.”
