Next Generation Research

This is Research BW

We promote research in the start-up scene

At Research BW, the networking of research takes centre stage. At NXTGN, we have set ourselves the goal of creating a platform for entrepreneurship researchers in Baden-Württemberg for inspiration, dialogue and collaboration. In doing so, we make research in the state more visible and build a strong community at the same time. Through our work, we support the dissemination of evidence-based knowledge on start-up activities within society, both regionally and internationally!

Research BW offers these advantages

We give entrepreneurship research a stage

Advancing research

Contacts with other researchers are incredibly valuable. An extended network can inspire your own work. Research BW creates space for such profitable networking. This generates new ideas and synergies in Baden-Württemberg.

Making research more visible

We give your research a stage! The impact of your work is increased through the exchange between stakeholders from research and society as well as communication about events and results. Various formats promote the visibility of all participants.

Our Research BW programme is currently in a needs-oriented growth and development phase. In this phase, we are responding to the interests of researchers and adapting our offering accordingly. Research BW currently includes events for more exchange in start-up research, a start-up database on the start-up ecosystem in Baden-Württemberg and a platform for addressing regional social groups. Our primary goal is to promote entrepreneurship research in Baden-Württemberg!
