In anticipation of the Fast Forward Awards event during the electronica trade show, the Fast Forward Start-Up Guide is available now as a free download. At the first edition of the electronica Fast Forward Awards in Munich, 35 participants from 16 countries presented innovations in the Concept, Prototype and Start-up categories. If you missed that event, you can read all about it in the guide.

All participants and their innovations are described in detail in the guide, including the winner of the Fast Forward Award: the efficient modular wind power system from Mowea in Berlin. There are also tips from successful start-ups, such as Red Pitaya, and advice on what to do after a successful Kickstarter campaign. The guide also devotes attention to sustainability and management of obsolete components. That aspect is often overlooked by starters, which can have dramatic consequences in the production process.

In short, you can find descriptions of all the innovations and advice for starters in this 126-page publication. Thanks to our sponsors STMicroelectronics, Würth, Conrad and Trinamic, the electronica Fast Forward Start-Up Guide is available for a short time only as a free download.

You can download your free copy of the electronica Fast Forward Start-Up Guide (PDF) from the Attachment area on this page.
