AI & ML
Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning are becoming an increasingly important part of products and technology of today and tomorrow. The amount of data available and being constantly generated is already far beyond what we can perceive and analyse without the help of algorithms.
With exponentially growing amounts of data, data-driven solutions are critical to gather, store, and exchange valuable datasets. Today, data is critical and highly valuable – it powers many successful business models and will become even more important in the future. We see great potential in new ideas that facilitate data management and support great minds to design algorithms and build intelligent models in a way that makes an impact in our world while also being responsible.
Business Process Tech
Business Process Technology has a deep connection to the Hasso Plattner ecosystem. Including fields like ERP solutions, process modelling and management, application generation and integration, and performance monitoring among others, new technology in this area has a deep connection to businesses and their operations and the potential to achieve significant impact. We aim to contribute to the advancement of this are by supporting new ideas.
Cyber Security
Almost everything has become digital and connected or has at least received a digital counterpart. All of these systems are interconnected via the web and constantly communicating and exchanging data and messages. Without security, none of these transactions would be possible. We foster business models that improve cybersecurity and create tech that can be trusted.
Digital Platforms
Digital platforms have become a central part of the internet economy in recent years. Some of the most successful digital companies have built large and powerful places for various purposes. However, we believe that there is still more to be done in the discipline of digital platforms. We are currently supporting multiple start-ups in this field and looking for more teams with creative ideas.

Even though digitalisation has reached the industry years ago, we regularly discover areas that can still be improved with new technologies. Being an important pillar of Germany’s economy, the industry provides a highly attractive target group for new B2B solutions. We support innovative ideas that bring further progress to this area.
EdTech
Very recent developments have shown that digital education is critical to secure the development and success of future generations. While the human factor will always be an important part of education, digital technologies for enabling efficient, remote teaching and training have already started to play a crucial role in our society. EdTech has already started taking its place as one of the most relevant digital sectors in our world. We support new ideas that help in shaping the future of education.
