#prototyphero
Since 2024, the STARTKLAR entrepreneurship center has been running the #prototyphero competition together with the Thomas Gessmann Foundation at Heilbronn University of Applied Sciences to promote prototype development.
The goal of #prototyphero is to create or finalize a prototype for a startup venture or ongoing project. The Thomas Gessmann Foundation supports this with financial funding. The STARTKLAR entrepreneurship center supports participants with a pitch workshop and provides access to both innovation spaces: the MakerSpace and DigiLab. The results are presented during TechDay.
The 2026 funding round is currently underway. The final results will be presented on May 8, 2026 as part of TechDay in the DigiLab (E701) from 4:00 PM - 5:30 PM.
