The finalists for the Deutschen Gründerpreis 2013 (2013 Germany Founder’s Award) in the categories ‘StartUp’ and ‘Rising Stars’ have been voted. Six outstanding enterprises were nominated by a jury consisting of representatives of the initiators stern, Sparkassen, ZDF and Porsche as well as the sponsors of the prize. Who will be granted the sought-after award will be announced to the candidates during the awards ceremony on June 25, 2013, at the ZDF Zollernhof in Berlin.
Clients of EICS Group GmbH Engineering Solutions in Munich being nominated in the ‘StartUp’ category are also enjoying full service. Hasan Kurum as graduated engineer and his team are specialized in high-quality engineering services and complex parts and components, predominantly manufactured from carbon fiber in hybrid construction. „At EICS, everything comes from one source – from design up to small production runs from our own manufacturing sites in Turkey“, so the 43-year-old Engineer for Aviation and Aerospace Technology. Renowned customers from the automotive, aviation or IT industry such as Audi, Bosch, Porsche, Webasto, ElringKlinger, BWI and many other partners trust in the know-how, top-quality and reliability of the experienced manager who has already co-started several highly successful supply companies before going independent.
The high-carat jury members of the Deutsche Gründerpreis (German Founder’s Award) panel nominated the enterprise for its „convincing overall concept, attractive work places as well as very fast yet sustainable development.“

Design and development of components, project management and the production of small series: Predominantly the automotive industry highly appreciates the extensive services of EICS Group Engineering Solutions.

„We simply cannot afford to make mistakes“, Hasan Kurum, graduated engineer and founder of EICS Group Engineering Solutions in Munich, states. Clients such as Audi, Bosch, BWI, ElringKlinger or Webasto are banking on reliability and quality of this premium service provider. Whether automotive, aviation, energy or electrical engineering: High-quality parts being light-weight and stable at the same time are in demand. Demand increases when, for instance, the weight of a heavy battery must be balanced by cutting down weight elsewhere in electric vehicles. „We are one of the few experts with in-depth knowledge of carbon fibers“, states the entrepreneur. In addition, his engineers are also working with sheet metal, plastics or a mix of these materials resulting in so-called hybrid construction. Such parts often are highly complex, require quite a lot of manual work or refined and finished surfaces. EICS not only develops the design but also provides the Project Management and supplies prototypes as well as small series manufactured on their very own two production sites in Turkey. „We are a full-service provider with everything provided from one source.”
The most important seed capital of EICS were Hasan Kurum’s contacts and experience in the industry. With 43 years, the graduated engineer had co-started several highly successful supply companies and now intended to be master in his own house. „Setting up during an economic downturn made it difficult to obtain a bank loan“, he remembers. Stadtsparkasse Dachau was the only financier to believe in the experienced manager. And was proven right: Already a couple of months after start-up, Kurum could repay his loan. Ever since, EICS has been in the black and finances its continuing growth from current business operations. „Of course, every day places new challenges, but being an entrepreneur, it is my explicit job to solve problems“, so Kurum. The father of 4-year-old twins relaxes from his daily stress in his family. His wife Tülay keeps his back covered at home and greatly lightened his load for 22 years now. „Without her, I wouldn’t be where I am today.“
Hasan Kurum does not go for fast money but healthy growth and sustained success. „ In the long run, we have to stand up to and compete with countries such as China.“ This will only work, the 43-year-old is sure of, by applying confidence, fairness and transparency: He places great importance on a cooperative partnership with his customers, suppliers and, predominantly, his staff, most of whom he knows for many years. „Staff potential is utilized not enough in many cases“, he muses. „Only promoting clever heads will generate really smart solutions and products.“ He dislikes temporary employment contracts as traditional in this industry for realizing projects. „If people have no perspective, quality of their work and creativity will suffer.“
„EICS being nominated in the ‘StartUp’ category of the Deutsche Gründerpreis (German Founder’s Award) is predominantly a distinction for my staff, the clients and – of course – for my wife“, so Hasan Kurum. „Such confirmation coming from an independent source really is overwhelming – also of advantage for Marketing… Most of all I am looking forward to getting into contact with experienced top managers who will provide many new impulses and ideas.“
The high-carat jury members of the Deutsche Gründerpreis (German Founder’s Award) panel nominated the Munich enterprise in the ‘StartUp’ category for its „convincing overall concept, attractive work places as well as fast yet sustainable development.“ Moreover, the owner’s personality is inspiring. „His vision and success make Hasan Kurum a role model for all founders.“
