The competition of the University of Göttingen is aimed both at people interested in founding a company and at active founders from all departments. The competition is accompanied by various events and workshops as well as a mentoring program during the entire competition period in the field of entrepreneurship. Attractive cash and non-cash prizes await the participants. Prizes will be awarded in the categories "Start-up Potential" and "Science". The public can also vote for prize winners in both categories. Since 2019, there has also been a special "Life Science" prize sponsored by the Life Science Factory. In 2020, a special prize "Social Entrepreneurship" was also awarded for the first time. In 2021, the special prize "Sustainable Land Use" was added, sponsored by the WissenWecken Foundation. This brought together cash prizes worth more than 30,000 euros in 2021.
