Ideas presented to investors and jury
As part of the "Boost.Up!" funding program, ten promising start-ups were able to present their ideas to investors. These included heating appliances that make heating more cost-effective and sustainable, an AI-supported analysis tool for optimizing athletes' performance, a swiveling rear carrier tent and a memo service that uses speech recognition and AI to create high-quality personalized texts.

The jury prize went to One-Stone Studios, which specializes in automated game development. On the other hand, the company Plasma Cleaning, which offers systems for the plasma cleaning of metal powder in 3D printing. Meanwhile, the public vote went to the startup 21energy, which offers the aforementioned Bitcoin heaters.

The participants embody the courage of entrepreneurship, the willingness to try new things and the ability to turn challenges into opportunities.
