Here you can find funded projects in the field of entrepreneurship and innovation that are currently being carried out at SCE and our HM - Hochschule München University of Applied Sciences. Finished projects and resulting publications can be found under Publications & Reports.
AI+Munich (BMWK, EXIST)
Artificial intelligence has enormous potential to positively shape the economy and society. Used correctly, we can all benefit from artificial intelligence systems. The partners of the Munich model project AI+Munich have developed a joint AI start-up process to further establish Munich as an AI start-up beacon. In the future, they will promote the AI ecosystem in the region, which is embedded in the diverse entrepreneurship activities in Munich as an innovation location.
AI+Munich aims to increase the number of startups in the field of artificial intelligence in the Munich metropolitan region by initiating entrepreneurial projects and scouting existing projects and startups and supporting them on their way to the market. In doing so, it is important to the model project partners to highlight the benefits of AI innovations for society as a whole.
eBridge | MGIH/Start for Future (BMWK, EXIST Potentiale | EIT)
As with EXIST III and IV, we were also successful in the EXIST Potentials initiative of the Federal Ministry of Economics and Climate Protection (BMWK).
Munich Global Impact Hub (MGIH)
Together with the two Munich universities Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität (LMU) and Technische Universität München (TUM) and their Entrepreneurship Centers LMU IEC and UnternehmerTUM, the Hochschule München University of Applied Sciences (HM) and the SCE submitted the project Munich Global Impact Hub (MGIH) as a cooperative application in the field "International" of the EXIST Potentiale competition. In the joint project Munich Global Impact Hub (MGIH), the three major Munich universities and their Entrepreneurship Centers combine their expertise to further internationalize Munich's start-up ecosystem and to harness start-up-initiated innovation and B2B business models for social impact - thus accelerating Munich on its way to becoming a globally visible start-up-driven and impact-oriented eco-system.

Start for Future Alliance (SFF)
SCE and HM have also co-initiated and driven the fast-growing international entrepreneurship alliance "Start for Future" with their international network and together with European Institute of Innovation & Technology, Knowledge and Innovation Communities (EIT KICs). Start for Future is an international ecosystem alliance initiative & community of universities, incubators and EIT KICs running joint international programs for talent and start-ups, matching entrepreneurs, talent, start-ups and co-creation partners.
Impact for Future (StMWi Bavaria)
As one of six successful submissions, the joint project "Impact for Future" of the Munich partner consortium has received a million euro grant from the Bavarian Ministry of Science for "impact-oriented entrepreneurship education". With this funding, the Bavarian university partners are providing thousands of students and scientists with in-depth training in impact orientation and firmly anchoring the topic of impact and social responsibility in Bavaria's university landscape.
Creating NEBourhoods Together (Horizon Europe)
Shaping beautiful and environmentally friendly neighbourhoods in Neuperlach together: As one of the six lighthouses for the New European Bauhaus (NEB), the project in the district will be funded by the EU from October 2022 to March 2025.
"Creating NEBourhoods Together" aims to make living and working in the city sustainable, socially just and environmentally friendly. Together with citizens, creatives and experts, ideas are developed in and for Neuperlach, prototypes are built and the founding of start-ups is supported. The ten NEB campaigns contribute to improving the quality of life for everyone and to climate protection. Public space, attractive housing, energy communities and local mobility are just as much a focus as youth culture, nutrition, biodiversity and circularity.
Social interaction in neighbourhoods and the respectful use of resources are the basis for "Creating NEBourhoods Together" to become a role model for European cities: beautiful, sustainable and inclusive!

Precelerator (BMBF, StartUpLab@FH)
As part of the program "Research at Universities of Applied Sciences" of the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) at the funding initiative "StartUpLab@FH" SCE and HM were successful with their Precelerator concept. The Precelerator is the new Community Space for Entrepreneurship & Prototyping at HM - both digital and on-site. The goal is to provide low-threshold support for innovative students and scientists through targeted support in fuzzy-front-end processes.
