How we support you
Network
Having a good network is an important success factor, especially at the beginning when the start-up team is still quite small. Do you want to expand your network in order to move your start-up forward as quickly as possible?
Our innoWerft team have connections around the world and across sectors. They’re happy to share contacts and open doors.
Guidance
Lots of accelerators offer start-up workshops on almost all topics of interest to new founders.
innoWerft focuses on 1:1 support tailored specifically to your needs.
Our team is interdisciplinary, with a whole range of skills to complement your founder team. And if you need more help, we can draw on our large network of experts.
We put you in touch with experienced founders and entrepreneurs, and of course are always there for you ourselves.
Feedback
If you, like many founders, are working day and night on realizing your idea, you're probably too close to it to be objective. The innoWerft team gives you constructive feedback, helping you see things from a different perspective. That can often be just the thing to give you a new insight that moves you forward. We help you reorganize your priorities and approach them in a structured manner.
Capital
Based on where you are in the founding process we help you get your start-up ready for investment. We help you choose the right financing model, and getting public funding for your start-up is part of what we do every day.
We’re an official Start-Up BW Pre-Seed partner, which means we’re in an ideal position to help you prepare your Pre-Seed pitch and get it approved. In special cases we can even invest up to €40 thousand ourselves, acting as co-investor on your way to a total investment of up to €200 thousand.
Premises
We share our premises with you for free, so we’re literally by your side as you work on your business.
Would you prefer a different location in the region?
We can also arrange access to many other co-working spaces with our partners in Mannheim, Heidelberg, Karlsruhe and Bruchsal.

How we work with you
Pitching Tuesday (Do-It Tuesday)
You’ve got your start-up idea? You now need professional feedback on your pitch? Come to Pitching Tuesday!
Every Tuesday three start-ups can pitch us their start-up or their idea at innoWerft. You’ll get detailed feedback immediately. And if you pique our interest, perhaps even more.
innoWerft on demand
At innoWerft we bring together lots of experts from a whole range of areas. For questions that we can’t answer ourselves we reach out to our worldwide network. That means we can also provide specific coaching packages that you can book individually through us.
Here too, if you get in touch we’ll find you a tailored solution.
innoWerft as co-founder
When we invest in your start-up, in exchange for 8% equity you receive our unlimited support and everything we have to offer. You’ll benefit not only from capital of up to €20 thousand, but also from our expertise, our network and our person power.
Up2B accelerator programmes
Up2B is a cooperation between no less than three start-up initiatives: next Mannheim, Technologiepark Heidelberg and innoWerft.
Together we’ve developed three accelerator programmes in which we work with you intensively to develop your start-up as quickly as possible – completely free of charge.
Start-Up BW Pre-Seed
Pre-Seed is a funding programme offered by the State of Baden-Württemberg in cooperation with the L-Bank, which helps start-ups with financing in the very early phases of development.
We at innoWerft are accredited Pre-Seed partners, which means that we can advise and assist you with your application.
And if your start-up is a good fit for us, we can also support you as a co-investor.
Start-Up BW Pro-Tect
The State Government of Baden-Württemberg is putting together a rescue package for start-ups. In a first step they are providing €25 million in bridge financing to support early-stage businesses based in Baden-Württemberg that are encountering difficulties due to the Corona pandemic. The programme is being rolled out by the usual Start-Up BW Pre-Seed partners, including innoWerft.
