EXIST-Women is a one-year pilot funding line of the Federal Ministry of Economics and Climate Protection (BMWK) to promote women in transfer and start-ups. EXIST-Women gives women at their university who are interested in starting up a business and have an affinity for entrepreneurship the opportunity to familiarize themselves with the topics of start-ups and self-employment at an early stage. The new EXIST funding line includes events, advice and support services as well as a financial grant for prospective female founders.

The "EXIST-Women Uni-Stuttgart" project is coordinated by TRACES.

The state of Baden-Württemberg wants to increase the percentage of women in start-ups. To this end, the pilot project of a Female Founder Agency was set up as part of "Start-up BW Women", which was initiated by the Baden-Württemberg Ministry of Economic Affairs, Labor and Tourism and is coordinated by TRACES, the Transfer Center at the University of Stuttgart. The aim of the project is to increase the visibility of female start-ups and encourage more women to become active in the field of entrepreneurship and start-ups.

Promote and support the transformation at the automotive location Stuttgart and strengthen the innovative power and competitiveness of the regional automotive and mechanical engineering industry in the Stuttgart and Neckar-Alb region as sustainably as possible! With this goal in mind, a university partner network is being set up at TRACES, Transfer Center of the University of Stuttgart, as part of the project "Cluster Automotive Region Stuttgart 2.0 - Transformation Network for Automotive and Mechanical Engineering (CARS 2.0, funded by the Federal Ministry of Economics and Climate Protection)". 

The network's ideal partners are universities in the region, the "hidden champions" from small and medium-sized companies and start-ups. The focus is on networking, knowledge and technology transfer through InnoRegioChallenges and events as well as establishing sustainable collaborations.  

Partners involved at the University of Stuttgart: Transfer Center of the University of Stuttgart (TRACES), InnovationCampus Future Mobility (ICM). The project is funded by the Stuttgart Region Economic Development Corporation (WRS) and is coordinated by TRACES.
