Our everyday lives are becoming increasingly digital – and digital technology is becoming increasingly commonplace. Not only people, but also companies are increasingly connected these days. This change and the increasing interconnectedness of all those involved holds great potential for innovative business models, concepts, and ideas, and opens up the market to new competitors.

The twelfth round, starting in mid-October 2025, is open to all innovative ideas from science and industry; this year, we are once again particularly welcoming ideas related to sustainability and artificial intelligence.
