If the founder is receiving current support for talented individuals without a connection to the start-up, she can participate in the EXIST-Women qualification program and receive material resources. She can only receive the 3-month scholarship if the current support for talented students is not a support program to secure her livelihood. The Deutschlandstipendium is compatible with the 3-month scholarship, as it is not to be classified as a support program for securing a livelihood due to its low amount.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/details>\n\n\n\n<details class=\"wp-block-stackable-accordion stk-block-accordion stk-inner-blocks stk-block-content stk--single-open stk-block stk-a2f8be6 is-style-default\" data-block-id=\"a2f8be6\">\n<summary class=\"wp-block-stackable-column stk-block-column stk-column stk-block stk-92e985c stk--container-small stk-block-accordion__heading\" data-v=\"4\" data-block-id=\"92e985c\"><style>.stk-92e985c-container{margin-top:0px !important;margin-right:0px !important;margin-bottom:0px !important;margin-left:0px !important;}<\/style><div class=\"stk-column-wrapper stk-block-column__content stk-container stk-92e985c-container stk-hover-parent\"><div class=\"stk-block-content stk-inner-blocks stk-92e985c-inner-blocks\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-stackable-icon-label stk-block-icon-label stk-block stk-d34706c\" data-block-id=\"d34706c\"><div class=\"stk-row stk-inner-blocks stk-block-content\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-stackable-heading stk-block-heading stk-block-heading--v2 stk-block stk-ae493a8\" id=\"kann-das-stipendium-zur-sicherung-des-lebensunterhalts-von-exist-women-zeitgleich-mit-einer-b-afo-g-forderung-arbeitslosengeld-dem-burgergeld-der-bundesagentur-fur-arbeit-elterngeld-oder-einem-ruckzahlbaren-studienkredit-bezogen-werden\" data-block-id=\"ae493a8\"><h5 class=\"stk-block-heading__text\">Can the scholarship to secure the livelihood of exist-Women be received at the same time as a BAf\u00f6G grant, unemployment benefit, the Federal Employment Agency's citizen's allowance, parental allowance or a repayable student loan?<\/h5><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-stackable-icon stk-block-icon stk-block stk-7328c90\" data-block-id=\"7328c90\"><span class=\"stk--svg-wrapper\"><div class=\"stk--inner-svg\"><svg style=\"height:0;width:0\"><defs><lineargradient id=\"linear-gradient-7328c90\" x1=\"0\" x2=\"100%\" y1=\"0\" y2=\"0\"><stop offset=\"0%\" style=\"stop-opacity:1;stop-color:var(--linear-gradient-7328-c-90-color-1)\"><\/stop><stop offset=\"100%\" style=\"stop-opacity:1;stop-color:var(--linear-gradient-7328-c-90-color-2)\"><\/stop><\/lineargradient><\/defs><\/svg><svg data-prefix=\"fas\" data-icon=\"chevron-down\" class=\"svg-inline--fa fa-chevron-down fa-w-14\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewbox=\"0 0 448 512\" aria-hidden=\"true\" width=\"32\" height=\"32\"><path fill=\"currentColor\" d=\"M207.029 381.476L12.686 187.132c-9.373-9.373-9.373-24.569 0-33.941l22.667-22.667c9.357-9.357 24.522-9.375 33.901-.04L224 284.505l154.745-154.021c9.379-9.335 24.544-9.317 33.901.04l22.667 22.667c9.373 9.373 9.373 24.569 0 33.941L240.971 381.476c-9.373 9.372-24.569 9.372-33.942 0z\"><\/path><\/svg><\/div><\/span><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/summary>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-stackable-column stk-block-column stk-column stk-block stk-389c2ad stk-block-accordion__content\" data-v=\"4\" data-block-id=\"389c2ad\"><style>.stk-389c2ad-container{margin-top:0px !important;margin-right:0px !important;margin-bottom:0px !important;margin-left:0px !important;}<\/style><div class=\"stk-column-wrapper stk-block-column__content stk-container stk-389c2ad-container stk--no-background stk--no-padding\"><div class=\"stk-block-content stk-inner-blocks stk-389c2ad-inner-blocks\">\n<p>A simultaneous combination of the 3-month EXIST-Women scholarship with another funding program or a substitute benefit to finance living expenses such as BAf\u00f6G, unemployment benefit, citizens' allowance from the Federal Employment Agency or parental allowance is excluded.

founders (possibly conduct a survey in advance), in particular address topics that are specifically relevant to female founders (e.g. founding and family, business models for social impact start-ups, fault tolerance, dealing with experiences of discrimination, etc.) and also include very early phases of start-up support (raising awareness of start-ups, developing start-up ideas, promoting creativity and inventiveness).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Measures that deal with \"general\" start-up topics but are offered in a format that is specifically tailored to female founders (e.g. \"Approaching investors for female founders\", \"Pitch training for female founders\" etc.) are also conceivable. The measures can be offered in a safe space for women only or as an open format for men and women. In addition to qualification offers, soft skills training, networking events or experience reports from role models are also possible, for example.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In contrast, the individual support provided to female founders by the network as part of the funding is not a measure specific to female founders, but is a prerequisite anyway. In principle, start-up networks should target their services at women in particular, include female founders as role models in their services and make female founders more visible in their public relations work.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/details>\n\n\n\n<details class=\"wp-block-stackable-accordion stk-block-accordion stk-inner-blocks stk-block-content stk--single-open stk-block stk-ddd1cf7 is-style-default\" data-block-id=\"ddd1cf7\">\n<summary class=\"wp-block-stackable-column stk-block-column stk-column stk-block stk-343092e stk--container-small stk-block-accordion__heading\" data-v=\"4\" data-block-id=\"343092e\"><style>.stk-343092e-container{margin-top:0px !important;margin-right:0px !important;margin-bottom:0px !important;margin-left:0px !important;}<\/style><div class=\"stk-column-wrapper stk-block-column__content stk-container stk-343092e-container stk-hover-parent\"><div class=\"stk-block-content stk-inner-blocks stk-343092e-inner-blocks\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-stackable-icon-label stk-block-icon-label stk-block stk-9b058c8\" data-block-id=\"9b058c8\"><div class=\"stk-row stk-inner-blocks stk-block-content\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-stackable-heading stk-block-heading stk-block-heading--v2 stk-block stk-f71101c\" id=\"mussen-die-hochschulen-forschungseinrichtungen-alle-der-oben-genannten-speziell-fur-grunderinnen-konzipierten-massnahmen-anbieten-wie-viele-massnahmen-muss-jede-einrichtung-anbieten\" data-block-id=\"f71101c\"><h5 class=\"stk-block-heading__text\">Do the universities\/research institutions have to offer all of the above-mentioned measures specifically designed for female founders?

It is therefore also permissible to select more than one coach. For this purpose, a coaching plan is drawn up in which the advisors and their services (in days) are specifically named. This should also take into account further qualification measures for entrepreneurial thinking and action based on the individual requirements of the start-up team. The coaching plan must be agreed with Project Management J\u00fclich.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>In addition to being referred by the local start-up network, a suitable coach can also be sought independently of the university through the research or start-up team's own initiative.
