FlareOn Biotech impresses at the 27th Baden-Württemberg Founders Award
On July 9, 2025, the Baden-Württemberg Savings Banks Association presented the Founders Award for the 27th time. Since 1997, the association has honored start-ups that inspire with a compelling business concept and a clear social impact.
The Sparkassen-Finanzgruppe awards the 2025 Baden-Württemberg Founder Prize to FlareOn Biotech GmbH from the STERN BioRegion.

The company is developing an innovative system that makes tumor margins in the head and neck region visible during surgery. Using a special sensor, cancer cells are made to fluoresce, enabling surgeons to access crucial information during the procedure—information that previously could only be obtained through time-consuming laboratory analyses.
The evening offered numerous inspiring insights and opportunities for exchange. Representing BioRegio STERN Management GmbH were Rahel Bleis and Dr. Klaus Eichenberg.
We warmly congratulate FlareOn Biotech and all other award winners and wish them continued success in the start-up ecosystem.
