In 2005, he started the innovation consultancy tf consulting. His focus of work is on collaborative innovation processes (open innovation, crowdsourcing, realisation of developer/designer challenges), radical innovation, design thinking, support of start-ups and the conceptualisation and realisation of innovation hubs and Enabling Spaces.
Thomas Fundneider teaches at the Johannes Kepler University of Linz. He is also actively involved in several start-up activities as well as regularly evaluating ICT-projects for the European Commission.
