Steinbeis-Europa-Zentrum (SEZ) was founded in March 1990 under an initiative spearheaded by the Commissioner for Europe of the Baden-Wuerttemberg Minister of Economic Affairs. SEZ’s core business activities lie in supporting companies, universities, and research facilities in Baden-Wuerttemberg with issues related to European research and innovation programs and cooperative technology projects. With offices in Stuttgart and Karlsruhe, SEZ assists with the submission of applications and the running of interdisciplinary projects, as well as with partnerships, project management, technology transfer, and the development of innovation strategies.
It provides support to small and medium-sized companies on behalf of the Baden-Wuerttemberg Ministry of Economic Affairs, Labour, and Housing, also in close collaboration with the Commissioner for Europe of the Minister of Finance and Economics. It also provides support to universities of applied science and Baden-Wuerttemberg Cooperative State Universities (DHBW).
