Project Lab X - the Startup Lab

What is the Lab X?

Lab X is the interdisciplinary ideas workshop for all HTWD members. Here there is space for creative, conceptual work, prototyping and the testing of demonstrators to promote spin-offs and start-ups. Our lab expands the technical infrastructure, from manual workstations to 3D printers, to realize proof of principles for later start-up ideas.

Lab X also offers space for teaching and research as well as financial support in the pre-foundation phase. In addition, workshops, repair cafés and various other events are regularly organized for exchange and networking.

Our aim is to anchor the spirit of scientific innovation and entrepreneurship in the individual faculties in such a way that entrepreneurial thinking becomes a matter of course.
