What to expect from working with Autak


Sponsoring, cooperation and contract development: we build prototypes rather than slide decks — and we are open about where every euro goes.

Where the money goes


We are a non-profit. How we handle funds is written into our statutes, not left to good intentions.

  • 100 % into development


    All profit from selling our products goes back into prototypes and material.

  • Run by volunteers


    The association runs on volunteer work. Membership fees and donations cover material, workshop and events.

  • Receipts on request


    We issue a simplified donation receipt, and our statutes and schedule of contributions are public.

  • An association that builds prototypes rather than slide decks — and answers questions the same day.

  • We can see exactly where our donation in kind ended up. That is not a given with sponsorships.
