''Successful startups can only come from successful mentor programmes. And how can you tell whether it’s a good mentor programme? Firstly, it’s like the person who would like to take part in it: You can see the potential immediately, and it can achieve enviable results straightaway. The very first UNI BME Startup Program was exactly like that. If you have a good idea as a university student, and you don’t know who you should turn to, I’ll help: to Startup Campus, as they offer this opportunity this year again.'

''In the world of startups, no matter at which stage our enterprise is, we always need some professional advice and shaping of attitudes. Startup Campus can help the different players in the Hungarian startup ecosystem in this by providing a range of programmes from high school and university programmes to corporate acceleration.'

''Startup Campus’s training perfectly complemented our theoretical knowledge from university, and provided practical skills that proved extremely useful during implementing our project. Furthermore, we also connected with a lot of teams that are in the same situation as us, and met mentors and staff, from who we could learn a lot.''

EIT Urban Mobility challenge
Our main sponsor is EIT Urban Mobility, the initiative of European Institute of Innovation & Technology (EIT) who are looking for ideas and startups that can shape the future of cities, and make urban spaces more liveable.
For this program, we are looking for solutions for the biggest challenges of modern urban transport, including managing increasing traffic, improving public transport, and reducing emissions. We expect ideas to progress the pioneering mobility trends of our time, such as Mobility-as-a-Service, vehicle sharing, autonomous driving, e-mobility, vehicular communication, or any other smart city or urban mobility solutions.
Partners
EIT Urban Mobility: Business Creation Programme
The EIT Urban Mobility is the initiative of the European Institute of Innovation & Technology (EIT) which is directed toward urban transport. With their Business Creation programme, they aim to become a leading player in the market when it comes to launching urban mobility projects as startups and scale-ups. They intend to support 180 startups by 2026, which together will generate € 50 million in revenue and thus prove to be viable in the market.
A Quantum Leap has been working in partnership with Széchenyi István University since 2017 to support startup projects with high market potential, international prospects and investment perspective. The infrastructure for startup incubation is provided by the university, which is based on the Management Campus building. Incubation operations are indued by the efficient business development, market entry and business creation of more inter-national success stories by startups from the university base.
The high level of innovation and R&D activity at István Széchenyi University (Győr) is an appro-priate basis for this.
Startup Campus is an international innovation centre and startup incubator. It develops and imple ments innovation programmes for its corporate and government partners: it supports innovative projects from the idea phase to SMEs with high growth potential through education, incubation, investment, sales and market entry services. The programmes are implemented by an international team, currently based in three countries and five cities. The mission of Startup Campus is to create value for society in a commercially sound way.
Hungarian Intellectual Property Office (HIPO)
Hungarian Intellectual Property Office (HIPO) is the central government office responsible for the protection of intellectual property both in Hungary and internationally. When launching a startup it is inevitable to knowingly protect the IP of an innovative idea, that is why participants in Uni Győr Startup Program are working with professi-onals from HIPO in questions regarding intellectual property.
As one of the largest and most active venture capital funds in Central and Eastern Europe, Hiventures, part of the MFB Group, supports the entire Hungarian entrepreneurial ecosystem with more than 271 billion HUF funding from the European Union and its own resources, providing investment from the idea phase to large corporate investments. In this activity, its professional partner is the Hungarian Development Bank (MFB).
Quantum Leap aims to create innovation programmes, and incubate innovative ideas and startups in order to foster significant technological and social progress. To achieve their goal, they have created business programmes that help the development of businesses, startups, technologies and industries, while supporting the success of pioneering trends, and advancing the domestic investor and business angel ecosystem.
Millenáris is not only an important park and venue complex, but is also committed to the startup world. By now, the former Ganz Electricity Works site has became a space for culture, science and innovation, where 1,500 events have been held in the last 20 years. In line with its industrial and innovation history, Millenáris supports the startup and young entrepreneurial community in Hungary, providing space and infrastructure for both online and offline events.
