Getting technology on the road

Developing innovations is the best way to become and remain economically successful. Identify and initiate innovative R&D projects, network projects and lighthouse projects - research and development (R&D) is the basis for innovation. Results from R&D activities are best demonstrated in flagship projects.

  • EMIL electric bus real-world laboratory and EMILIA autonomous bus real-world laboratory
  • Real-world laboratory R_Lab Mobility: digital test field urban mobility and data hub mobility
  • Innovation network HY2.ZERO-Mobility needs hydrogen

Financing of innovation projects

Innovative projects are risky and therefore require additional funding. Transparency and appropriate support measures for suitable funding instruments help to find funding to advance innovation projects. 

  • Webinars on funding
  • Individual funding advice
  • Matchmaking and partner scouting for innovation projects

Networking and cooperation

Networking is the prerequisite for exchanging knowledge, initiating business relationships and building trust. Trust is the prerequisite for cooperation.

  • Cluster working groups such as Digitalization of Production Logistics, AI in Energy and Mobility
  • Logistics Monday and Mobile Tuesday forums for technological trends in logistics and mobility
  • On-site cluster events at companies and research institutions to exchange ideas with other cluster members

International network

The cluster's international network helps to gain access to expert knowledge and information on new markets, experiences, best practices and legal frameworks.

  • International delegation trips to support cooperation with European partners in particular
  • Visits by foreign specialist delegations to the Cluster in Regensburg
  • International online matchmaking and brokerage events to attract cooperation partners for international cooperation projects, e.g. Arrival Platform

Visibility

Companies must be visible. Regionally, nationally and internationally. The cluster provides support through joint marketing activities such as trade fairs, conferences and online events. Companies can present their products and services to a wide audience.

  • Joint cluster stands at the leading international trade fairs LogiMAT, IAA MOBILITY and transport logistic
  • Congresses including trade exhibitions in Regensburg such as the Innovation Congress, Material Flow Congress and Transport Congress  
  • The cluster's website, newsletter, podcast and social media channels achieve above-average reach

Find employees

Finding the right employees is a challenging task for companies. Thanks to the proximity of the cluster to the University of Regensburg and the East Bavarian Technical University, the cluster can support member companies in this task.

  • JOBTECH, the Cluster's own job fair in the TechBase
  • Job Wall for job advertisements - as a notice in the TechBase, on the cluster website or at regional job fairs
