Resources
TU Darmstadt is not only a place of knowledge and research, it has an abundance of support and resources to provide the best possible working conditions for students and researchers.
Offices and labs
Room to grow
Like a sprout needs a pot, researchers and founders need a space to work in. To organize, meet, and plan their next steps – preferably without prying eyes.
Spaces like that are right here on the campus, and with our partners, HUB31, Ryon and TechQuartier – ranging from co-working to conversation pits to highly professional and modern labs. The perfect grounds to sprout ideas, grow, and network.

In case you wondered, no, FAB is not short for “fabulous”. It’s the digital fabrication lab at TU Darmstadt. Here, students and researchers can fabricate their own prototypes in a cost-effective way, all while learning state-of-the-art insights in workshops and projects.
For now, you’ll find the FabLab in Lab3 e.V. (HUB31).

Strategic security
First the pads, then the skates.
In a perfect world, everyone could just advance their own research, get it into the market and be happy. But since the world isn’t perfect yet – and the market not exactly fair – we have to take measures to protect business ideas and research – like a patent application. However, since this is quite costly, complex, and individual, HIGHEST steps up to provide you with tailor-made and fair options for your business endeavor.
