Thuringian Founder’s Award – Dynamic42 GmbH honoured

On 04 December 2018, this year’s Thuringian Founder’s Prize was awarded in the historic Volksbad Jena. Dynamic42 GmbH was awarded 3rd place in category 1 “Business Plan”. The prize, endowed with €5,000, was presented by Thuringia’s Minister of Economic Affairs Wolfgang Tiefensee. “We are very happy to have received an early Christmas present. It seemed to have been a neck-and-neck race in the business plan category, as we heard from the IHK. All the nicer that we made it onto the winner’s podium,” says Dr. Knut Rennert, Managing Director of Dynamic42 GmbH. The Thuringian Ministry of Economy, Science and Digital Society (TMWWDG) provided a total of 75,000 € in prize money and the IHK Ostthüringen zu Gera and the Thuringian Centre for Start-ups and Entrepreneurship (ThEx) selected 11 winners from 69 applications in 4 categories.

We would like to thank all participants for a great competition and especially Ms Beate Seifarth (IHK) for the good organisation and support!
