Creating Innovation, Generating Impact
For companies, we offer access to current research results and support in the transfer process from the identification and communication of solutions to the conclusion of contracts.
For scientific employees of KIT, we offer internal services from the initial idea and its patent protection to commercialization with the approach and project implementation with industrial partners.


The KIT Business Club (KBC) connects KIT researchers with companies and their contacts in the fields of innovation management and technology. The KBC team supports researchers in identifying relevant contacts, presenting their research, and exploring opportunities for collaborative projects.
