Increased brand awareness of Phytonics, 1st place Transfer Award
Phytonics won the Transfer Award with its innovative coating technology for photovoltaic systems. "We were very pleased to receive the award. It's great to see that the jury is convinced by our work. This motivates the entire team," reports Dr. Ruben Hünig, co-founder of Phytonics. In addition to intrinsic motivation, the award has also had a positive impact externally. Hünig emphasizes above all the increased awareness of the company as a result of the win, which in turn makes it easier to find investments and paves the way to mass production. The next steps towards mass production are already planned. Phytonics is currently setting up a pilot production facility in Karlsruhe. In a hall in Daxlanden, several thousand glass panels are to be anti-reflectively coated with the innovative Phytonics technology. Initial real-life tests have shown successful results. Financing for the planned mass production is to be secured by the end of 2023. With their personal success story, Phytonics would like to encourage other project teams: "By all means participate in such formats. The time required to apply is manageable and the prizes, but most importantly the attention generated, are very attractive," says Hünig.
