SERVICES
From the idea to the product, we would be pleased to support you in your project with the following services and advise you on possibilities for funding at the state, federal and EU level as well as selected Commonwealth funding opportunities.
The development and management of national and international networks is part of our core business.
We have extensive know-how in the field of ZIM network and cluster management and support partner companies and scientific institutions to identify ideas and joint projects within our networks. Our network managers accompany the application for financing of innovation projects and ensure reporting and accounting to the project sponsors in compliance with the guidelines.
We also ensure a constant exchange between the participating companies and scientific cooperation partners at home and abroad.
Innovations are created from an interdisciplinary perspective
In 2018 we started to expand the international „T+I Circular Bioeconomy Cluster“ by adding three additional networks. The cluster gives network partners the opportunity to exchange interdisciplinary information with partners of the other networks within the framework of joint events. In addition, further innovation potentials and partners for the implementation of R&D activities can be identified.
About ZIM

As part of our innovation and financing consulting, we identify current and future market and technology trends. Based on these, we derive the necessary innovation strategies and development priorities for interested SMEs in order to remain competitive in the future.
In order to meet the financial requirements, we work together with you, as the interested SME, to examine national and international funding and financing offers that are suitable for the implementation of the planned innovation and growth projects. This primarily concerns the funding offers of the BMWi within the framework of the ZIM guideline as well as other funding offers of the federal and state governments for innovation and growth projects. In addition, T+I can examine funding and financing offers from the EU and the Commonwealth for selected R&D projects.
Following the successful acquisition of R&D funding, T+I offers competent support in the administration of applications and in the accounting of the funding streams in accordance with the guidelines.
Go Inno
Companies in the commercial sector, including handicrafts, which want to introduce an innovative product or an innovative technical process in their company with the help of external consulting, can use a German Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Energy innovation voucher from the „go innovative“ program. They must have fewer than 100 full-time employees at the time the consultancy contract is concluded.
With this voucher, up to 50 percent of the selected consulting services at the respective service level (potential analysis, realization concept, project management) can be subsidized.
Go digital
If you are a small or medium-sized company in the commercial or trade sector and want to digitize your operations, we support you using the two modules „Digitized Business Processes“ and „IT Security“ in optimizing processes and tapping additional market shares through digitization.
Here up to 50 percent of the selected consulting services in the respective category can also be subsidized.
As an authorized consulting firm for these programs, we will take over the acquisition and processing of the subsidies for you.
If you are interested in one of the programs, please visit the German Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Energy (BMWi) homepage.
With our consulting tool “VC-POINT”, we help start-ups and innovative medium-sized companies to prepare and raise venture capital to finance their growth strategy.
We work along the entire value chain from start-up, growth and expansion, to financing in the context of succession planning.
Furthermore, we support our clients in their approach to investors and the professional preparation for investor due diligence.
In doing so, we draw on a unique database that currently contains the financing offers of over 1,400 active institutional investors and corporate venture providers from Germany and abroad.
In order to obtain sound information for important strategic decisions, more and more medium-sized companies are relying on market and competition analyses.
A further specialty of T+I is conducting analyses on topics such as market entry, customer identification, market trends, competition and internationalization. We take the work off our clients‘ shoulders and use appropriate tools to extract relevant and trustworthy data. We are happy to examine your ideas at an early stage in terms of feasibility, financing capability, prototype testing, marketability and competition.
