AI Nation launches new programs for AI startups across Germany. From the pre-founding phase through growth, founders get access to financing, coaching and a strong network.

Until February 9, 2025, interested AI startups can apply for the 11th AI+Munich batch.

The AI+Munich project is especially known for its state-funded prototype funding. Since March 2022, talents and teams around AI have been able to receive support of up to 25,000 euros on their way to becoming a startup. But the program doesn’t end with this funding: a strong AI ecosystem is to be developed in Munich. Without a doubt, this already exists in Munich; the question is rather how it will continue to develop. And the course is set toward cooperation and sustainability through “trustworthy AI.” One of the tasks of AI+Munich and the cross-university education team led by Dr. Fabian Heil, Educational Lead of the MUC Summit GmbH, is to convey this. This is done, among other things, through the freely accessible online course on “AI and responsible Entrepreneurship.” The interactive course explains with numerous examples what artificial intelligence, sustainability, and entrepreneurial thinking mean and have in common. How exactly this works is explained in this article.

With up to 25,000 euros, the Munich initiative for artificial intelligence AI+Munich supports early- and late-stage AI startups in their further development. Applications for prototype funding are still possible until June 25.

The Munich initiative for artificial intelligence AI+Munich offers funding of up to €25,000 for early- and late-stage AI startups. The application deadline is March 28.

The Munich artificial intelligence initiative AI+Munich is looking for innovative ideas and is offering 25,000 euros in prize money in its pitch competition. The application deadline is September 5, 2022.
