How to become a part of LTC

We know that the early stages of starting a business are hard — you probably have a lot of questions, and don't know where to even start. We want to help you get the best out of your vision and create an ecosystem where your start-up can thrive.

  • Applying to us is a three-step process.


    1. First, you fill out our application form and answer a few questions about your company.

    2. We will review the information provided and get back to you within a week. If we see a good fit, we will send you our application canvas, in which you provide more detailed information about your business model, your product, your team and your financing situation.

    3. If you convince us with the application canvas, we will invite you to a pitch. You will have 5 minutes to present your start-up, followed by a 20-minute Q&A session with our team and possibly one of our experts.


    Based on this pitch, we will asses and evaluate the maturity and potential of your start-up and whether your start-up and the LTC are a good match!

  • Once you are a LTC-member we support you with visibility, network, know-how-transfer, event participation and assist in building your team. The more time you invest the more you get out of our program. We usually try to do regular individual check-ins with our members every 6-8 weeks.

  • This depends on the programme or event. We have different formats. Just keep in touch with us, follow our social media and sign up for the newsletter to stay informed about our activities. Are you missing a format or do you have any suggestions? Contact our team and we will be happy to hear from you.

  • The services of the LTC are free of charge for start-up teams, students, scientists and alumni. The LTC is a non-profit organisation and the activities of the Legal Tech Colab do not generate any income for UnternehmerTUM and TUM Venture Labs (with the exception of patent licences through technology transfer).

  • LTC focuses on Legal Tech start-ups that tackle core legal issues using a combination of legal knowledge and technology. Ideal candidates develop scalable and internationalizable solutions with the potential to capture or redefine entire industries. Start-ups purely focused on organizational or administrative tools in the legal contact, like software for law firms, may not qualify.

  • Yes, we welcome start-ups at different stages. However, having a well-defined business model, team, and clear product vision increases your chances of acceptance.

  • While LTC does not directly provide funding, we offer access to a network of investors, venture capitalists, and other funding opportunities through UnternehmerTUM and TUM Venture Labs. We can help you connect with potential investors during your journey.
