Campus presentation

28.10.2021 | BITZ

The municipality of Oberschneiding organised two events during which the Scientific Director Professor Peter Johann Schmieder was given the opportunity to present the recently established Bavarian Innovation and Transformation Centre "BITZ" to numerous interested participants.
The so-called "Silicon Valley Program" (SVP) which is accompanied and mentored by the Californian Santa Clara Elite University - provides assistance and training to highly qualified start-up teams, with the aim of bringing an idea or a product successfully to market. The partnership between the two institutions was founded ten years ago and has seen more than 500 participants.
"Campus" Oberschneiding will be the platform for workshops, in which the teams work out a concept for transformation of their business idea or innovation, to pave the way for their ideal "go-to-market" strategy. These workshops will be followed by company visits. In April 2022, the current teams wil take the challenge to sucessfully perform an "on-site-pitch" at Santa Clara University in California.
The aim of the programme is to create value and jobs within the own region. The best example is the company S.A.I. Schweiger which has established a company location in Oberschneiding with six employees starting from an invention in the field of robotics technology.
