Social innovations in the spotlight!

At the event organised by the Federal Ministry of Research, Technology and Space on 12 February 2026 in Berlin, the University of Erfurt's Founders Service gathered new impetus for social innovation and social impact.

At the event organised by the Federal Ministry of Research, Technology and Space in Berlin, we were able to witness the winners of the Student Award for Social Innovation being honoured.

The award-winning projects impressively demonstrate how much creative power, sense of responsibility and entrepreneurial courage can be found in student and researcher initiatives. They clearly demonstrate the potential of social innovation when science and social commitment work together.

We would like to congratulate all the award winners and thank them for the invitation and the inspiring dialogue with committed players from the innovation ecosystem.

With many new impulses in our luggage, we will now continue to ensure even more impact from the humanities, social sciences and cultural studies at the University of Erfurt.
