What an inspiring day at INNODAY25, hosted by Technische Universität Darmstadt and HIGHEST – Innovations- und Gründungszentrum.

The opening speeches by Prof. Dr.Tanja Brühl, Harald Holzer, Dr. Walter Fischedick and Hanno Benz highlighted how research, innovation and entrepreneurship go hand in hand to accelerate Deep Tech, foster collaboration between universities, startups and industry, and turn bold ideas into real-world impact.

For us at Aperio Space, it was truly valuable to be back on campus, meeting motivated students, exchanging ideas and receiving great applications for our new positions. We were also glad to reconnect with familiar faces and meet new ones throughout the day. The conversations and energy across the hall were truly inspiring.

We also appreciated the inspiring side events, especially the Female Networking Lunch by Hessen Ideen, which brought a unique spirit of empowerment, openness and connection to the day.
