Maximum 0.5 days per week

Our academy program starts with a joint kick-off event where all participants get to know each other. After that, workshops and project meetings are held about every four weeks. In these power-ups, we show you how to develop and implement your own project ideas. You also have the opportunity for individual, project-related coaching at any time.

A highlight of our joint journey: The interim presentation! We all travel together for two days to an inspiring location, get to know partners of the Helmholtz centers and work intensively on the project ideas.

A second workshop phase follows, in which everything revolves around implementing the project ideas, acquiring the necessary resources and developing the best communication for the project. At a final event, you will present in front of our contacts from industry, business and society.
