Beirat für Startups #34 Ein Beirat kann grundsätzlich für Startups von großem Vorteil sein. Wie immer, ist es eine Entscheidung, in der es auf den Einzelfall ankommt. 🛣 Einige Gründe hierzu behandele ich wöchentlich in meiner Beitragsreihe : Zum letzten Post der Reihe: https://lnkd.in/dfQsdEuf The Benefits of a Biotech Advisory Board 🧪🔬 As a leader in the biotech industry, I'm excited to share the advantages of having a strong advisory board with expertise in biotechnology. 💡 Cutting-Edge Insights 🔍 An advisory board composed of seasoned biotech professionals can provide invaluable, up-to-date insights into the latest industry trends, technological advancements, and regulatory changes. Their deep knowledge and experience can help guide your strategic decision-making and ensure your company stays ahead of the curve. 🧠 Specialized Expertise 🔬 Biotech advisory board members bring a wealth of specialized expertise across various disciplines, such as drug development, clinical trials, regulatory affairs, and commercialization.

Virtuality meets reality: when the metaverse revolutionizes production 🤖   VR and the metaverse are not just for fun. They are helpful solutions for reducing planning and optimization costs and ensuring realistic simulations at an early stage. In the industrial metaverse, real working and industrial environments are digitally simulated and processes are optimized - a trend that is also revolutionizing the automotive sector by increasing efficiency, reducing costs and creating production reliability. In his keynote speech at New Manufacturing World, Bernd M., Siemens AG will explain how the Industrial Metaverse and AI can help here. 🤝 This is where experts from the manufacturing industry meet to exchange ideas, share knowledge and discuss strategies for the future.

Always asked myself, if I can be happy …always? As an entrepreneur you are in the natural habit of optimizing all aspects of a project so why don’t optimize your life? After many years of learning about what makes us happy, I think it is only a transient state. But maybe we can feel even better … when we are in Flow! Flow is the state of consciousness in which we forget space and time, are maximally happy, motivated and efficient. In this state, we feel our best and achieve the most. What do we need to achieve this flow? Why is it so important for founders and managers? I talk about this in the podcast with editor Elena Todeva Listen in and share your best flow moments. #flow #flowmoment #success #performance #motivation #alignment #leadership #newwork #startup #vc #entrepreneurship

We at Dr. Hauschka and many other entrepreneurs are waiting for the #neuerechtsform. Who else? Economy should serve people, profit should not be an end in itself. This is one of the principles at Dr. Hauschka, as founder Dr. Rudolf Hauschka was convinced that entrepreneurship is always linked to responsibility. Hence, Dr. Hauschka / WALA was transferred to a non-profit corporate foundation more than 35 years ago. Dr. Hauschka / WALA has been member of Stiftung Verantwortungseigentum (Foundation of Steward Ownership) since the beginning, supporting entrepreneurs in order to be able to secure the long-term independence of their companies without bureaucracy. 📃 There are proposals from the scientific community to the government on how this legal form could be implemented simply, without bureaucracy, and in an entrepreneurial manner – that's why we want to support and share the #neuerechtsform together with others. The #neuerechtsform provides a suitable legal basis for companies in 'steward-ownership' or 'trust ownership'. This means it... 👉guarantees a legally binding commitment of assets (profits remain within the company and are used for business development),   👉ensures entrepreneurial independence without bureaucracy, and   👉enables the transfer of ownership rights to capable successors, regardless of their financial strength and beyond the immediate family circle. ✏️ If you, as an entrepreneur, are also waiting for the #neuerechtsform support the initiative by adding your name to the waiting list: https://lnkd.in/dx2qjys5 #spreadtheword #warteliste #wirwarten #neuerechtsform #nachfolge #mittelstand #wirtschaftswende #diezukunftistjetzt #wennnichtjetztwanndann

***Study on holistic #digitalfactory models in the #manufacturingindustry*** Dear digital factory network (focus on "planning"), there is a survey out there, where I kindly ask for your precious expert time (est. 15 mins)! It is being conducted by the Fraunhofer Institute for Casting, Composite and Processing Technology IGCV. This survey is an essential part of a research on #holisticfactorymodels in the manufacturing industry. The goal is to determine the current status, existing challenges and future needs in this area. The survey is divided into three main blocks: 1. Holistic #factoryplanning: Gain a better understanding of holistic digital factory planning, including current challenges and the level of implementation. 2. Methods and tools: Map the #digitaltools and #methods currently used in #factoryplanning, evaluate their effectiveness and identify future requirements. 3. Sociodemographic information: Collect basic demographic data on participants to better contextualise the results and ensure representativeness. What's in it for you? After completing the survey, you have the option of registering to receive the study results. You will then receive a summary of the results once the study has been completed!

In my recent expert opinion for FOCUS online, I discussed the challenges slowing down the transition towards greener buildings. Technology can have a crucial role in driving this transformation. While factors like bureaucracy, lack of experts, and related costs are slowing progress, innovation is key to overcoming obstacles of a transition towards sustainability. At STYX, we have invested in several companies that offer cutting-edge solutions in this sector, including: - vreed GmbH: Digitizing the energy consultant - Proptly: Bridging the gap between green infrastructure providers, installers, and end customers - SoliDrip: Providing autonomous irrigation for green infrastructure - Ei Solutions AS: Offering automated taxonomy due diligence for commercial real estate owners The journey toward a more sustainable built environment demands determination from owners and operators of residential and commercial buildings. As an entrepreneur, I believe that embracing innovation is crucial in addressing these challenges effectively and succeed in the long run.

You're right, Monika really did a great job of expressing the importance of Behavioral Elements. Behavioral Elements add depth to our understanding of the self and help us effectively navigate our relationships. Understanding the scientific principles underlying human behavior allows us to be more conscious and effective in both personal development and interactions. This understanding enables us to comprehend why people behave in certain ways, thus helping us build our relationships on a stronger foundation. Ultimately, understanding Behavioral Elements helps us better grasp the complex nature of humans and enables us to lead a more fulfilling life by applying this knowledge to our relationships and personal growth.

Start-ups in Europe: a light at the end of the tunnel - finally!    This article by Nadine Schimroszik in Handelsblatt gives reason for hope for the tech ecosystem, as it summarises a development that has been tentatively emerging for some time: The number of new #start-ups in Germany is growing again, by 17 per cent, as shown by a comparison of the first quarter of 2024 with the same quarter of the previous year.   💡It is particularly interesting to see that most investments are being made in AI. An unmistakable sign that they continue to be a driver of innovation for the German startup ecosystem.   We recently came to a similar conclusion with my team, as part of our analysis of the German startup landscape. Our conclusion: more and more funding are being mobilised for ♻️ #Greentech business ideas that are based on AI-based technologies and have a positive impact on our planet.

The first project that gets all my attention focuses on Commercial Excellence in the pharmaceutical industry. As a cancer survivor, this has been both exciting and encouraging for me. 🎀 The innovation being driven by new technology even in its various intricate regulatory restriction, is truly astonishing. The future promises a more integrated healthcare system. I strongly believe in incorporating more holistic approaches into #healthcare. A #DigitalTwin could change how we think about next best actions in a way that makes sense for the industry and is the best for the patient. Bringing conversations like this to the forefront, especially with experts from #Grünenthal, #Pfzier, #Bayer and other pace setters in this industry, is very enlightening. #GenerativeAI, makes me more confident than ever that there is a better way to do things. This is a great step forward in getting to understand those limitations and possibilities. Looking forward to learning more and onboarding great minds!

🔥 𝗥𝗲𝗮𝗹 𝗘𝘀𝘁𝗮𝘁𝗲 & 𝗕𝗹𝗼𝗰𝗸𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗶𝗻 Today I met with Nadja Hofmann from Bricksdock AG and Harald Horrmann from Phantom Blocks for a coffee talk in Munich. We are united by our passion for the #digitalization of the #realestate industry and so we had plenty to talk about. ❓It was about how you can manage to take a very exciting but same time very traditional industry into the digital world? Where do you start? 💻 Is it the internal standard processes, such as document management and communication with owners, tenants, managers and other shareholders, or do you go directly to the process of the value chain of a property and start with #tokenization ? 🤔 What is your opinion? ⛓️ Following our discussion, we continued with the Bundesblock webinar on the topic of #RWA tokenization. We discussed the definition of the term and how Bricksdock and tokenforge 's businesses relate to it, particularly as it relates to real estate tokenization projects. 🏦 The focus was on the added value, which can be outlined using the value chain of real estate projects. 📕 Germany has definitely secured a locational advantage here with the appropriate regulatory framework ("eWpG"; electronic securities act) We will continue to shed light on which projects have potential in the future and report on them.
