The catalyst for deeptech success
Deeptech Labs is a VC fund, accelerator, and the catalyst for deeptech success
Twice a year, our cohort of startups are embedded in a powerful network of successful entrepreneurs, expert practitioners, leading researchers, and deeptech organisations worldwide.
Having a new technology at the heart of a business isn’t just an extra work stream, it fundamentally changes the nature of the challenge. It’s not just a startup + tech, it’s a technology startup. Cambridge is Europe’s leading technology cluster for these startups and has been a leading source of technological understanding and commercialisation as far back as Babbage and Lovelace.
Many technologies fail to be widely deployed due to strategically ill-judged early decisions. Deeptech Labs offers startups with these technologies access to expert practitioners who have successfully trodden the path.
£100k-£350k investment
Twice a year Deeptech Labs invest between £100k to £350k in a small number of deeptech post-Seed startups. Then we work intensively with them in a structured, three-month programme, which ends in a Demo Day.
50+ deeptech leaders
We work with an elite community of leaders who have built and scaled deep technology companies to develop our cohort’s networks.
30 events
Our programme consists of intimate Fireside Chats and in-depth Expert Sessions. Our entrepreneurs and network have numerous opportunities to interact about their business and the challenges they face.
