Die Veranstaltungen finden Montag 12:00-14:00 Uhr (Vorlesung) und Montag 14:00-16:00 Uhr (Seminar/Übung) auf dem Campus Griebnitzsee statt. Der Raum 3.06.H08, Hauptgebäude auf dem Campus Griebnitzsee: START: 13. Oktober

The event will take place in room H08 on the Griebnitzsee campus. It is supervised by Prof. Hans Hennig von Grünberg for the Faculty of Natural Sciences and by Prof. Bastian Halecker for the Faculty of Economics. It takes place every Monday afternoon from 12:00 to 16:00. Oral participation is part of the exam and regular attendance is therefore expected, especially during the three excursions.

The final project culminates in a “transfer playbook” and a 5-minute video pitch from each student that follows one of two strategic paths:

• Path Finder: The identification of a research group or a technical-scientific activity in the Berlin-Brandenburg area that could be the solution to a specific challenge facing industry.
• Problem Finder: Match (define) a suitable industrial application for a promising technology that is still in the early stages of development in the laboratory.
• The final project consists of a 5-minute video, which is presented in the last session and followed by a question and answer session. And a condensed term paper that elaborates on the transfer and communication concept ideas presented in the pitch.

The course ”Transfer and Innovation Management” will be organized in the winter semester 25/26 as a kind of ”MATCHLAB.” MatchLab offers master's students a practice-oriented opportunity to deal intensively with the challenges and processes of technology transfer. The aim of the course is to train students to act as innovation brokers between relevant problems in industry and innovative technologies from research laboratories.

The program is modular in structure and integrates various exploratory learning formats, namely:

• The ”Problem Clinic”: Here, students have the opportunity to directly identify and critically examine immediate problems and ”pain points” of partner companies in order to identify potential innovation gaps. This direct exchange enables a deep understanding of the demand side.
• Lab Pitch Tour: During these tours, current technologies are demonstrated directly by the researchers, supplemented by insights into the technology readiness level (TRL) and information on potential implications for intellectual property (IP). This provides direct access to the latest research results and their development potential.
• Field Excursions: Excursions to relevant locations provide a deeper understanding of the real-world application conditions and limiting factors under which the developed solutions would need to be implemented. This on-site experience is crucial for assessing feasibility.
• And, of course, as has always been the case: the classic lecture and interactive seminar. Not everything has to be new all the time.

The focus here is explicitly on the vibrant (deep) technology & innovation landscape of the Berlin/Brandenburg region. In contrast to a lengthy process of business conception or the creation of detailed business plans, MATCHLAB focuses on bringing together developers and researchers on the one hand and doers and implementers on the other. How do you bring people from two completely different spheres together?

The program is aimed at master's students from all disciplines, including but not limited to economics, engineering, natural sciences, computer science, and design. Given the limited number of participants, early registration via PULS is recommended to secure participation in this unique innovation format and begin the matchmaking adventure.
