move+ was created as a joint initiative of Zeppelin University, Stadtwerk am See and ZF Friedrichshafen AG with the aim of revitalizing the start-up region on Lake Constance.
However, we very quickly realized that this purpose needed more partners and supporters in the region. And so the Accelerator move+ e.V. support association was born out of the initiative with the aim of promoting and developing a start-up-friendly infrastructure and ecosystem in the Lake Constance region with a focus on mobility and energy and the promotion of equal and inclusive start-ups.
This association is open to all those who want to get actively involved and make the Lake Constance region a start-up location again.
We want to revive the region's entrepreneurial spirit and thus create jobs in future-oriented industries.
We create a lively network and a continuous exchange between students, founders, experts, universities, companies and municipalities for the development of innovative concepts and new companies
We advocate and create conditions that are conducive to start-ups, including by supporting scientific research, government funding and entrepreneurial thinking.
We are particularly committed to start-ups by women and to inclusive start-up teams and projects.
Benefit as a member
By becoming a member of the association, you directly support the promotion of regional start-ups in the field of mobility and energy.
Start-ups always lead to new jobs. By supporting these start-ups, you indirectly ensure the creation of new jobs and a sustainable future for the region.
Every member of the association has the opportunity to obtain specific information about start-ups from the funding program and thus obtain an overview of the relevant market
Each member can commission us once a year with an individual matching and is thus introduced to new companies for specific tasks.
Lake Constance was once a region of founders and start-ups, creating the prosperity we enjoy today. This culture is actively promoted by us and you as a member.
With your membership you support us in creating a national and global ecosystem for start-ups in mobility and energy.
We specifically seek out and support new, modern business models in the mobility and energy sector, from which you can then participate in a variety of ways.
Any natural person can become a member of the association.
Supporting members are members with special rights and obligations in the association. They benefit from a range of additional services free of charge.
It is expressly desired that universities become members of the association. The first membership year is therefore free of charge for them.
By becoming a member, you support the development of an active start-up scene in the Lake Constance region and thus indirectly ensure the jobs of the future. After contacting us, we will be happy to send you the admission documents. Alternatively, you can donate to the association at any time. Simply use the donation button.
