INNOVATION LIVE AWARD 2020
"Living innovation". According to this motto, Bayern Innovativ has been working together with companies, research institutes and innovation carriers since 1995. And we will always continue to do so. Together with you. For a future and a Bavaria in which every viable idea and technology becomes an innovation.
75,000 close contacts and countless forward-looking ideas
In recent years, we have been able to support a wide variety of projects, ideas and people. Each of these tasks was unique and proof of the clout of Bavaria as a state of business and innovation. If we had to name the best projects - we wouldn't know how to choose. That's why we asked a jury.
25 Lighthouse Projects
For our anniversary in 2020, we launched an award under the patronage of Minister of State Hubert Aiwanger. Prizes were awarded to projects that were judged to be particularly outstanding by Bayern Innovativ. The jury selected a total of 25 companies, founders and ideas.
