Welcome!

We are the Life Science Expert Hub!

We feature more than 20 Life Science, medical and medical technology institutes and are connected to the UKA (Universitätsklinikum Aachen). Our start-ups and subject matter experts cover a broad range of Life Science related topics, as you can see below. While this seems narrowing, we welcome everybody, who wants to connect with start-ups and experts on any topic around Life Science: From drugs to protheses to new ECMOs to health apps to new bio-processes.

Our five Life Science Expert Bases.

MEDICAL DEVICES & DIAGNOSTICS

Medical Devices & Diagnostics aims to support start-ups and connect people focusing on hardware and device-related topics.

As example, we feature start-ups revolutionizing ECMO or developing innovative protheses. We closely cooperate with RWTH’s Institute of Applied Medical Engineering | Cardiovascular Engineering (UKA).

Digital Health Technologies aims to support start-ups and connect people focusing digital solutions.

This may range from telemedicine to foster better patient care to apps for doctors or patients. We closely cooperate with RWTH’s AcuteCare InnovationHub (UKA).

DIGITAL HEALTH TECHNOLOGIES

(BIO-)PHARMA & DRUG DELIVERY

(Bio-)Pharma & Drug Delivery aims to support start-ups and connect people focusing on the development or production of pharmaceuticals.

As example, we feature start-ups developing new drug candidates or new processes for testing drugs. We closely cooperate cooperating with RWTH’s Institute of Laboratory Animal Science (UKA).

Tools, Services and Solutions aims to support start-ups and connect people focusing on any field related to Life Science supporting functions.

For us, this ranges from medical work planning solutions to digitizing hospital hardware to new processes for testing blood samples. We closely cooperate with RWTH’s Institute of Laboratory Animal Science (UKA).

TOOLS, SERVICES AND SOLUTIONS

(Bio-)Tech

(Bio-)Tech aims to support all start-ups, that are not only focused on Medical Technology, but also more general Bio-Technology.

This includes chemicals, material sciences, and related production technologies. We focus on renewable and carbon-reduced technologies and processes and cooperate with RWTH’s Biotechnology department.
