About the

DeepTech & Robotics

Accelerator

Our DeepTech & Robotics Accelerator fuels startups pioneering scientific breakthroughs and disruptive engineering innovations.

DeepTech innovations are unlocking new frontiers in fields like artificial intelligence, robotics, quantum computing, biotechnology, and advanced materials. These technologies hold immense potential to reshape sectors such as healthcare, energy, manufacturing, and transportation. However, commercializing such complex and capital-intensive technologies presents unique challenges. Bridging the gap between research and market-ready products requires specialized expertise, state-of-the-art facilities, and strategic collaborations.

The DeepTech & Robotics landscape is marked by a shift towards developing disruptive solutions that can drive economic growth, address global challenges, and improve quality of life. The focus is not only on technological advancements but also on creating a sustainable and equitable future through responsible innovation.

Do you lead a DeepTech or Robotics startup that challenges the status quo? Are you passionate about your innovation, are looking to scale and need to raise capital and partner with corporates to build, test, and validate your hypothesis? Then this program is for you!
