About
Magdeburg’s city startup initiative reports that more than 20 institutions work on startup promotion and business succession. The city describes the campus-adjacent Wissenschaftshafen as a development area with information and communications technology and medical technology themes.
A state startup association reports 41 startup formations in Magdeburg since 2019; its sector counts for medicine, software, e-commerce, and industry are statewide figures, not city-specific. Separately, STIMULATE reported in 2026 that RAYDIAX received a €2.5 million EIC Accelerator award for further development and market launch of its TACT system, with clinical application work planned. RAYDIAX describes TACT as CT-based image support for minimally invasive cancer treatment; a 2023 announcement described its prototype as preclinical.
RAYDIAX invites clinicians to discuss joint phantom-study projects and says it welcomes people interested in its technology. These are company-stated routes; current availability is not established.
