Who is Deep Tech & Ecosystem for?

The whole Dutch deep tech ecosystem, in different ways. Deep tech scaling and valorisation support founders and researchers directly; public affairs and ecosystem work reaches further, engaging government, policymakers, organisations like TNO, Invest-NL, Brainport, VNO-NCW and ROMs.

How do I get involved in a vertical or programme?

Is the Deep Tech & Ecosystem ‘entity’ government-subsidised?
