Every year ten to fifteen start-ups are founded with assistance from Freie Universität. They are started by students, graduates, and researchers. The business ideas range from plant-based drinks made with ingredients from the Berlin region to artificial intelligence for analyzing court decisions. Seminars at the School of Business and Economics teach the basics of how to start a business. There are also workshops and competitions.
The entrepreneurs receive support from start-up consultants and academic mentors from Freie Universität as well as members of the NFUSION Entrepreneurs Network. The Startup Villa on Fabeck Strasse 40 offers space for members of start-ups to work with the team of Profund Innovation, the service institution for knowledge and technology transfer within the Research Division of Freie Universität.
