Tri-State Venture Sprint

From Frontier Research to Real-World Impact

Connect With Deeply Technical Researchers Across Munich, Tübingen, and Zurich

   23.04.2026 - 24.04.2026

   Tübingen

Venture Sprint is an intensive 90-day program for PhD students, PostDocs, and researchers in AI and Data Science who want to turn their research into real-world products. Across three focused weekend sprints in Munich, Zurich, and Tübingen, participants progress from problem validation to MVP development and real user adoption—supported by experienced mentors, hands-on user research, and rapid iteration.

The focus is on concrete outcomes, including deployed prototypes, real users or partners, and a clear path from research to venture creation. Venture Sprint is not a workshop or lecture series, but a structured, execution-driven journey from idea to impact. The series is moderated by experts in entrepreneurship from the TUM Venture Labs, the Tübingen AI Center, and ETH Zurich, who bring deep experience in venture building, technology transfer, and startup mentoring.

We invite all MCML Junior Members to participate in this Entrepreneurship-Training.

    Zurich: Understanding Solutions
  • April 23. & 24.
