Around 100 invited guests discuss future technologies from energy, industry and infrastructure – premiere of the planned podcast format „Ready to Build“ with Alexander Kümmelschuh and Andreas Klier

Augsburg, Thursday, 9 July 2026 – REACT GmbH – Renewable Energy Advisory, Consulting & Technology – has celebrated the official launch of its company at the Augsburg Technology Center. The event marked the founding of REACT GmbH by its Managing Director and shareholder Alexander Kümmelschuh, who previously spent almost six years in a leading position at MR Plan GmbH, where he headed the hydrogen and energy division.

Around 100 invited guests from industry, the energy sector, technology, project development and entrepreneurship came together to exchange views on current challenges and future technologies. The focus was on practical solutions for the transformation of energy and industrial projects – from hydrogen and grid connections to digital site analyses, resilient energy supply and sustainable industrial applications.

„With REACT, we don’t just want to analyse projects – we want to bring them to realisation. Our aim is to support industrial and energy clients from the very first idea, through technical and economic assessment, all the way to construction-ready planning and commissioning. The event showed how great the need is for hands-on engineering and collaborative exchange.“

— Alexander Kümmelschuh, Managing Director and Shareholder of REACT GmbH

In addition to expert presentations and short pitches, the event at the Augsburg Technology Center offered plenty of room for in-depth conversations and new contacts. Representatives from various companies presented solution approaches from the energy and industrial sector and discussed with the guests how projects can be realised faster, more efficiently and more sustainably.

„We are delighted that REACT GmbH chose to celebrate its launch here at the Augsburg Technology Center. This is exactly what this place is designed for: a stage for innovation and a meeting point for people who bring future technologies into realisation. The breadth of the solutions presented – from hydrogen to digital project development – shows the potential that lies in the interplay of industry, energy and technology. We wish Alexander Kümmelschuh and his team a successful start and warmly welcome REACT to the location.“

— Wolfgang Hehl, Managing Director of the Augsburg Technology Center

„The exchange at the REACT opening was extremely valuable for us. The diversity of topics was particularly exciting – from green hydrogen and grid connections to resilient energy systems. These are exactly the formats we need to move future technologies from theory into real, feasible projects.“

A special highlight was the presentation of the planned podcast format „Ready to Build“, which Alexander Kümmelschuh intends to develop together with his business partner Andreas Klier, Managing Director of Elumija GmbH. The podcast will focus on projects from the real estate, energy and industrial sectors – exploring why some ventures fail, which hurdles arise during realisation and which factors enable successful implementation.

With its launch at the Augsburg Technology Center, REACT positions itself as a partner for companies that want to develop and realise energy and industrial projects in a structured way. The focus is on technical consulting, economic assessment, project development and implementation-oriented support – with a clear understanding of the requirements of industry, energy supply and infrastructure.
