As the central technology transfer company of the Max Planck Society, Max Planck Innovation has helped bridge the gap between science and industry since 1970.

The Max Planck Society (MPG) operates as Germany’s most successful organization in basic research and is worldrenowned for its cutting-edge research. In many cases this cutting-edge research also forms the basis for innovative products and services that are implemented through licensing and spin-off companies.

Max-Planck-Innovastion advises and supports scientists of the Max Planck Society in the assessment of inventions and filing of patents. We also market patents and technologies to industry, while coaching founders on how to build up new companies based on the research results of the Max Planck Society.
