Ready to launch your startup in 48 hours: At the 10th leanlab, start-up teams developed business models over the weekend

The starting signal was given on Friday at 5 p.m. and the pitching took place on Sunday evening: Those interested in founding a company and those with ideas came together at the leanlab weekend to develop and refine business models. At the Conti Campus, they were able to work on their ideas around the clock with the support of experienced coaches - a jury awarded prizes to the three best teams:


1st place: AI4Kids - The next generation of educational toys. Punjo the teddy bear is an innovative and safe software and hardware solution that uses AI-supported dialogs and storytelling to promote the language development of young children, including multilingual ones.

2nd place: Eduprint - educational models in 3D. Heart, Polle, solar system: Teachers can order 3D-printed models for all subjects via the EduPrint platform. The didactic concept is included - this is how modern teaching works. Because: grasping comes from grasping.

3rd place: DirIGEn - The potential of gene activation in drug development. Years become weeks: the therapy of health-related genes saves considerable time and money in the development of drugs. The programmable transcription factor is based on gene scissor technology.


The participating teams developed their concepts based on the lean startup approach. The aim is to use lean structures to bring an idea to market as quickly as possible - without a long planning phase beforehand: the business model should grow based on feedback. Learning by doing and trial and error should promise success in a short space of time.

The leanlab is an event organized by starting business | Leibniz Universität Hannover , the start-up service of Leibniz Universität Hannover and hannoverimpuls, the business development agency of the city and region of Hannover. Further information can be found at: www.leanlab.de
