FIRST ROUND OF START-UPS HONORED WITH RWTH SPIN-OFF AWARD 2022

At ATEC 2022, the first round of start-ups with roots in RWTH Aachen Unviersity were presented with the Spin-off Award 2022.

As the only official award for outstanding spin-offs from the university, the Spin-off Award is a quality label for the winning teams, allowing them to promote their business with reference to its scientific origins in RWTH Aachen University. The label has supported past winners in gaining credibility among investors and attracting new customers. At the same time, the successful teams serve as role models for future entrepreneurs and ambassadors for the technology and innovation location Aachen.

The first set of winners of the Spin-off Award 2022 represent the wide range of excellent research disciplines at RWTH Aachen University. We are proud to have such a strong and diverse field of start-ups represent the RWTH start-up ecosystem far beyond its borders. Congratulations to the winners and all the best for your future endeavors!
