The new House for Innovation and Transfer (HIT) on the OTH Regensburg campus on Universitätsstraße was built as a modular structure with the help of High Tech Agenda Bayern. Twelve new offices, meeting rooms and two research laboratories provide space for 50 OTH Regensburg employees to conduct research on two floors; the ZWW, which also contributed to the financing, has a new home on the second floor.

The building sets standards in terms of sustainability and stands out in particular for the following points:

• built entirely in timber
• Building materials used are exclusively harmless
• Minimal surface sealing
• geothermal heating with geothermal probes
• extensively greened flat roof with photovoltaic system
• Ventilation system with heat recovery
