The Siemens Frontier Partner Program is looking for startup partners to help us transform manufacturing: reduce time to market, enhance flexibility, and increase efficiency for our customers. Frontier helps entrepreneurs to develop their solutions and get them to market faster, making our industrial customers more competitive.

By partnering with Siemens, you can

» Build on proven and scalable technology: Siemens PLM Software is a world-leading provider of product lifecycle management (PLM) software, systems, and services.

» Leverage well-established sales channels to get your solution to market faster.

» Reach the industrial manufacturing market.

What do we offer to our Frontier Partners? 

What do we expect from Frontier Partners?

We expect that you will use the provided software as described in your application, tell us about your progress quarterly, and be willing to give presentations on your developments at Siemens PLM events or customer visits, if and when we request. We also expect you to give us prompt access to beta versions/demos of any developed product for evaluation.

We do not expect that you share any unprotected intellectual property or source code with us, either in your application or during the partnership.

Please note the Frontier Partner licenses are for development, not commercialization. Before you have a launch-ready product, Siemens PLM Software will negotiate a separate, commercial license agreement with you.

And after Siemens Frontier?

When you are ready to commercialize, we will negotiate a commercial license with you, or terms for a commercial launch, and you will exit the Frontier Partner Program. Typical Terms & Conditions for a commercial license are viewable online after you submit your application. You can work with Siemens to leverage our channels, or you can go to market on your own; it is your choice. You may also wish to join the Siemens PLM Solution Partner Program.
