By Beate Mosing Rector Kainz explains in an interview what the entrepreneurial spirit of TU Graz staff is based on, what role sustainability plays in this, and what drives students and researchers to achieve exceptional things. Research lays the foundation for our future. How important is it to the Rector of Graz University of Technology (TU Graz) that research results are turned into businesses?. Harald Kainz: We founded the "entrepreneurial university" five years ago, support it with special lectures, courses, projects and advisory services and are closely connected with the Start-up Garage. With Science Park Graz , we operate our own ideas incubator. As you can see, this is a priority topic for us, which we are pushing with a whole series of support programmes. We see our-selves as an investor - and we're leading the way.
