At university, you learn for life. And not just theoretically, as the numerous exciting startups already proved at our first big Demo Day in 2023 – we want to build on this success this year. With the WORLDFACTORY Startup Center at Ruhr University Bochum, we support founders from the world of science in entering the business world. At our second WSC Demo Day, we are now shining the spotlight on our current top ten teams.
From exhilarating pitches to immersive tours through the Makerspace and the CEIT, accompanied by delightful refreshments and insights from experts in both science and business, this event promises to be a true highlight for participants and spectators alike. It’s an opportunity for the curious to peek into the dynamic world of startups, for aspiring young founders to be inspired in real-time, and for visionary entrepreneurs to catch a glimpse of tomorrow’s leading companies. It’s the epitome of the startup scene.
We eagerly anticipate your presence at the second edition of this extraordinary event!
