We use the approach to generate spin foam models by an auxiliary field theory defined on a group manifold (as recently developed in quantum gravity and quantization of BF-theories) in the context of topological quantum field theories with a 3-form field strength. Topological field theories of this kind in seven dimensions are related to the superconformal field theories which live on the worldvolumes of fivebranes in M-theory. The approach through an auxiliary field theory for spinfoams gives a topology independent formulation of such theories.
