Founder Institute

Your idea - your start-up:

Let the Start-up Institute at SRH University support you in one of the most exciting phases of your professional life.

In 2010, we at SRH University set ourselves the goal of taking a more active approach to the topic of business start-ups and promoting and supporting our students and graduates in this area. To this end, the Start-up Institute was established, which operates on these three levels: Teaching, mentoring and networking.

Our offer is aimed at students, graduates up to five years after graduation and employees of SRH University. If you would like to request our support as a team, at least one team member should have a relationship with SRH HUniversity (student, graduate, employee, lecturer).

We will be happy to advise you on how to turn your ideas into profitable and sustainable business concepts. We will also support you as needed, especially during the challenging start-up phase.
