Wissensregion Düsseldorf actively promotes exchange and cooperation between science and business in order to develop innovative solutions for current challenges. Our aim is to create synergies and facilitate the transfer of knowledge through targeted networking initiatives and transfer projects.

Wissensregion Düsseldorf has launched a number of important initiatives as part of its efforts to continuously improve conditions for international students and academics. A central component of these efforts is the development of a comprehensive FAQ list on questions of immigration law, which is being compiled in close cooperation with the Düsseldorf Immigration Office.

In 2023, the Wissensregion Düsseldorf's "Innovation Semester" was converted into an "Innovation Course" so that participants can better integrate this modular course into their everyday lives. This course, run by the FOM University of Applied Sciences, promoted innovative ideas and entrepreneurial skills, just like the Innovation Semester. The final event presented a wide range of projects, such as digital travel assistants and sustainable urban development initiatives. The positive response encouraged the Düsseldorf Economic Development Agency to plan further programs to promote innovative thinking and entrepreneurship.
