Support for the ideas of tomorrow
When we at UXMA are excited about an idea, a concept or a vision, we are not content with just give it a mental thumps up, but we actively support and push it. That's why we recently became an official startup partner of FLEET7 in Kiel.
FLEET7 is not only the largest coworking space in the state capital, but also offers its community the ideal breeding ground for young people's innovative startup ideas to grow. With the Prototyping Kit Scholarship, up-and-coming teams receive support in the development of their ideas for the future. In addition to the extensive use of the infrastructure, the idea developers gain access to the extensive skillset of the FLEET7 network. And thus, also to the UX expertise of UXMA.
"I am a UX mentor because I want to support the innovators of tomorrow. Kiel needs new ideas and young minds, that's why the Prototyping Kit is so great."
Carina Wente, Senior UX/UI Designer
„Ich bin UX Mentorin, weil ich die Innovator*innen von morgen unterstützen möchte. Kiel braucht neue Ideen und junge Köpfe, darum ist das Prototyping Kit so großartig.“
Carina Wente, Senior UX/UI Designer
Since the beginning of 2020, UX/UI designer Carina has been passing on her experience in user experience as a mentor to the field of participants of the Prototyping Kit. Her workshop series, "How to be user-centered? - Putting People in Focus," clarifies why the topic of UX is so relevant in the development of products and services and provides methodological guidance on user-centered work. The positive feedback and creative exchange with young minds inspired us to take the step into a permanent startup partnership. In addition to financial support, this also means expanding our range of workshops offering based on our interdisciplinary expertise.

If your head is full of ideas to make the world a little bit better with your product, but you lack support in the implementation, you can apply for the Prototyping Kit Scholarship here. Or you can bring your creative mindset directly to the UXMA team and apply for one of our vacant positions.
