The route to funding and results
To support the further development of MAIkit, QLero decided to apply for research funding. Alongside the financial support, the strategic value of funding also played an important role. As Martin Ulbricht explains, successful funding acts at the same time as a mark of quality, confirming that this is a vetted and innovative project.

Contact with Ignite came about through an earlier professional collaboration. QLero’s team had already gathered experience with various funding programmes and made a deliberate decision to run the application process together with a specialist partner.

Ignite supported QLero in preparing and structuring the funding application. This included the analysis of the innovation project, the preparation of the technological content and support through the entire application process.

With Ignite’s support, QLero was able to deliver the funding process successfully and to drive the further development of its MAIkit AI platform.
-
The close collaboration paid off: the innovation project was successfully funded through the Forschungszulage and received the support it needed for implementation.
