Stiftung Junge Kreative Köpfe

The Stiftung Junge Kreative Köpfe is committed to awakening and sustainably promoting the spirit of discovery and invention among students. With the regional competition "Creative Minds," it offers young people in four regions a practice-oriented platform to collaboratively transform ideas from the STEM fields (mathematics, computer science, natural sciences, technology) into functional models together with companies, municipalities, and experts. Since its founding in 2005, the foundation has operated as a network of industry, crafts, schools, and municipalities, strengthening creative learning content and innovation potential in school education.

The Stiftung Junge Kreative Köpfe aims to systematically integrate creative thinking into school education. Its goal is to motivate students to independently develop creative solutions, to foster their implementation skills and self-confidence, and to connect them through professional support with experienced experts and companies. Through this commitment, the foundation simultaneously invests in the talents of youth, the attractiveness of the region, and the long-term innovative capacity of the economy.

The foundation's offerings are aimed at students of all school types and age groups in the participating regions (Bad Mergentheim, Neckarsulm, Mittleres Taubertal, Wertheim, Tauberbischofsheim, Lauda-Königshofen). The focus is especially on young people interested in mathematics, computer science, natural sciences, and technology, who wish to implement their creative ideas in a practical way, establish initial contacts with companies, and demonstrate their skills in a recognized competition.
