Leibniz Universität Hannover

Leibniz University Hannover (LUH), Hannover Medical School (MHH), Hochschule Hannover - University of Applied Sciences and Arts (HsH), as well as Hanover University of Music, Drama and Media (HMTMH) are involved in the project "Hannover Transfer Campus", which is led by LUH. Other project partners include hannoverimpuls, the city of Hannover and the surrounding region, and Gesundheitswirtschaft Hannover e.V. The aim of the project is to create shared, sustainable structures within a consortium of four high-performance universities in the Hannover region in order to support transfer activities from science to society, as well as the industry. The project focuses on facilitating collaboration between all parties involved in transfer activities - researchers on the one side and industry partners on the other - while strengthening existing collaborations and well-functioning structures. For example, the start-up service starting business at LUH, which exists since the nineties and works with hannoverimpuls since 2015, supports a steadily increasing number of start-up activities. The staff unit Research Funding, Knowledge and Technology Transfer at MHH, which was founded in July 2018, collaborates with starting business and combines transfer activities.
