Unite’s Munich office has enthusiastically embraced a new era of AI collaboration. Recently, we welcomed aspiring AI enthusiasts to mark the inception of a pioneering partnership with the TUM.ai student initiative. This AI incubation programme is a visionary initiative that provides a dynamic co-working environment at Unite for AI enthusiasts to immerse themselves in real-world applications and challenges.

Unite as a strategic partner

Unite is one of TUM.ai's four strategic partners, alongside industry giants IBM, Microsoft, TUM Venture Labs, and the applied AI community. Unite offers guidance, support, expert input, and valuable connections, nurturing future AI leaders and creating an entrepreneurial ecosystem for student-driven AI innovation. 

David Podolskyi, Co-President of TUM.ai, highlights the exponential growth of the AI student initiative; he says, “Our collaboration with Unite will help us grow even faster, promoting the initiative and accelerating the AI and entrepreneurship hub in Munich and the EU. Collaborating with the Unite community and network, and with the co-working space, gives us a platform to cooperate and invite other people to our events, such as those from entrepreneurship labs, AI academy, and more.”
