Goethe University Frankfurt and partners launch EXIST Women program.
FRANKFURT. In what can be considered an important milestone for the promotion of start-ups in the Rhine-Main region, Goethe University Frankfurt and its start-up center Goethe Unibator, together with TU Darmstadt and Darmstadt University of Applied Sciences, are delighted to have successfully applied for the renowned EXIST Women funding program. Aimed at supporting female founders, the initiative strengthens the cooperation between the Rhine-Main Universities (RMU) and Darmstadt University of Applied Sciences.
EXIST Women supports female students and researchers interested in founding their own company to either turn innovative ideas into their own start-ups, or to actively help shape start-up projects as co-founders. Participants benefit from individual coaching, mentoring and a strong network. At Goethe University, the program is known as females@Unibator.
“We need more female role models in the start-up scene. EXIST Women gives women the chance to confidently realize their ideas and actively shape the innovation scene. I am delighted to be part of this program as a mentor and to accompany female founders on their journey,” says Sally Schulze, successful founder and mentor at females@Unibator.
Program highlights:
• Developing entrepreneurial skills: Workshops and coaching sessions strengthen participants' personal and professional skills.
• Mentoring and networking: Experienced mentors and a broad network offer support and valuable insights into the start-up world.
• Financial support: Participants receive a material budget of €2,000 as well as a three-month grant of up to €3,000 per month.
Participation in the program does not require a concrete start-up idea; instead, the decisive factors are entrepreneurial drive and a desire to explore new perspectives. Further information on the application process and the conditions of participation can be found on the Goethe Unibator website (www.goetheunibator.de/femalesunibator).
