Your Friendly Physicist and other Nerds: Stories from Physics and Science
"In the end, founding our company was a no‑brainer!" If you can say this about the founding process of your company, you've probably done a few things right. With the right people. At the right place. Dr. Andreas Weis [https://www.linkedin.com/feed/#] and Jennifer L.M. Rupp [https://www.linkedin.com/feed/#] founded Qkera [https://www.linkedin.com/feed/#] in 2023. Steffen Weinmann [https://www.linkedin.com/feed/#] came in a bit later as Head of Engineering. Together with a (still) small team they develop next-generation batteries. And they use materials that are not so different from what your favorite coffee cup is made of: oxide ceramics. But as Andreas puts it: "It's one thing to have breakthroughs in the lab, but it's another to have an ecosystem that helps you scale it." And that's why it is not a coincidence that Qkera was founded at Technische Universität München [https://www.linkedin.com/feed/#], where you have support and especially infrastructure (meaning lab-space and equipment) through TUM Venture Labs [https://www.linkedin.com/feed/#] and UnternehmerTUM [https://www.linkedin.com/feed/#], as well as super broad and active industry/startup/expert network. Great discussions, great company, great guys! Listen now to the full origin story of Qkera with Andreas and Steffen on your favorite podcast platform. #yourfriendlyphysicist
