Our 9-month programme and platform is designed to turn PhD students into tomorrow's deeptech founders, supporting them to build ventures that leverage their proprietary research while still at university. We set them up with personalised coaching, connect them with industry experts and help them access innovation grants, awards and venture capital funding.
