Success Stories
The 'Honours Degree' in Entrepreneurship has successfully coached various teams in the past years. Many teams continue to work on their business ideas after the end of the programme. Get inspired by this selection of our previous participants.
Pionize
Pionize aims to become the leading platform for finding, buying and controlling smart home systems in the future, making the everyday life of households as energy efficient and comfortable as possible. Pionize's offering includes two products: the "Smart Finder" and the "Smart Control Function." The "Smart Finder" uses a short questionnaire about the potential customer's lifestyle to identify suitable smart home products and combines them into a functioning system that can be ordered directly from a Pionize partner. The "Smart Control Function" enables private individuals to control the purchased system independently of the product brands. This control option is free of charge for Pionize customers for a limited time. Paying users can add extensions and features individually as needed, such as energy tracking.

PlanBee
The goal of PlanBee is to actively support beekeepers and gardeners through digital tools and thus contribute to the protection of biodiversity. PlanBee's offer includes two products: the app "Beekeeper" and a "sensor-supported beehive". The "Beekeeper" app addresses beekeepers and gardeners alike. While beekeepers are supported in their work directly at the beehive, e.g. by a pollen color directory available offline, the app provides gardeners with helpful tips on how to make their garden or balcony bee-friendly. The "sensor-supported beehive" enables beekeepers to observe the behavior of their bees on a daily basis and provides recommendations for their care based on the collected data.

Neuphony
Neuphony's vision is to use neurofeedback to improve brain health, making an important contribution to improving memory, sleep quality and reducing people's stress and anxiety. Neurofeedback can be easily used at home via Neuphony's convenient headband and accompanying app. The headband measures your brain's electrical activity and the app recommends relaxation and meditation techniques based on sensor data to achieve the client's desired state (e.g., better concentration).
Team members: Ria Rustagi, Bhavya Madan
