Würth and Teknopark work on sustainable technologies

“Environmental protection knows no boundaries,” stated Ahmet Çakır, General Manager of Würth Elektronik eiSos Türkiye. “In Teknopark Istanbul, we have found a strong partner to provide targeted support for sustainable projects in Türkiye. The Teknopark Istanbul for cutting-edge technology offers entrepreneurs and start-ups an ideal environment with acceleration programs and cooperation opportunities. Our development support complements this offer perfectly.”

The NextCube program includes classic startup support including training, mentoring and risk analyses as well as support with performance evaluation and searching for investors.

Experts from Würth Elektronik are participating with online and classroom training. Participants also have access to a state-of-the-art electronics laboratory, which Würth Elektronik has already equipped with equipment and components in 2022, including more than 60 design kits as well as soldering stations and microscopes for developing prototypes.

“Supporting start-ups is of central importance to us,” said Alexander Gerfer, CTO, Würth Elektronik eiSos. “Of course, we are also implementing our successful concept of development support internationally. Teknopark Istanbul is an ideal platform for this: true to our mission of creating together, we give founders in Türkiye the chance to turn good ideas into successful products.”

The initiators of the three best projects will be invited to a presentation to Germany in September 2025.
