<p>"In the end, founding our company was a no‑brainer!"</p><p><br /></p><p>If you can say this about the founding process of your company, you've probably done a few things right.

Together with a (still) small team they develop next-generation batteries. And they use materials that are not so different from what your favorite coffee cup is made of: oxide ceramics. </p><p>But as Andreas puts it: "It's one thing to have breakthroughs in the lab, but it's another to have an ecosystem that helps you scale it."</p><p>And that's why it is not a coincidence that Qkera was founded at <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/feed/#" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Technische Universität München</a>, where you have support and especially infrastructure (meaning lab-space and equipment) through <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/feed/#" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">TUM Venture Labs</a> and <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/feed/#" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">UnternehmerTUM</a>, as well as super broad and active industry/startup/expert network.</p><p>Great discussions, great company, great guys!</p><p>Listen now to the full origin story of Qkera with Andreas and Steffen on your favorite podcast platform. <strong>#yourfriendlyphysicist</strong></p>
