Last week, in collaboration with the Tübingen AI Center, we welcomed 7 AI spin-outs to the launch and first Session of the DEEP x Tübingen AI Mentorship Program. Thank you to our mentors, who provided valuable feedback to the founders, helping them refine their business strategy and objectives. We are excited to be progressing the AI ecosystem and supporting the commercialization of science with the leadership of Matthias Bethge, Dr. Thorsten Lambertus, and Nina A. Peters (she/her). Stay tuned for Session 2 in December! #DeepTech #Innovation #ESMTBerlin #AI #entrepreneurship Photos by: © Ana Torres / Jeremy Knowles Ana Torres Jeremy Knowles
DEEP - Institute for Deep Tech Innovation
Wagniskapital- und Private-Equity-Auftraggeber
Rebuilding the journey from basic research to global champion
Info
The DEEP - Institute for Deep Tech Innovation is the newest addition to ESMT's institute landscape. Started in September 2022, it focuses on the deep tech value chain and intends to overhaul it through educating & enabling all actors involved. The goal: change the way deep tech is coming to life, so rebuilding the entire path from basic research to a thriving venture, a global champion even, by sustainably instilling entrepreneurial thinking & acting in the scientific sphere and beyond. So what is it exactly that we do? Cross Reference: incubator, accelerator, company builder, entrepreneurship center, entrepreneurship academy, tech transfer office, venture capital fund, venture lab - We focus on verticals, which a) have high impact on people, planet, and profit; b) are predestined for deep tech solutions, and c) leverage the strengths of the European ecosystem. For a start, we are zeroing in on VERTICAL #1: LIFE SCIENCES, soon exploring further verticals to follow up on. - We tailor to the individual need by looking at vertical-specific challenges. This way we (co-)design measures intended to overcome particular hurdles on the journey from basic research to global champion. Meaning: - We offer entrepreneurship education for future entrepreneurs, scientists, engineers and leaders in scientific organizations. - We support start-up creation and acceleration by working closely with entrepreneurs, scientists, research organizations and their tech transfer offices to commercialize IP and build deep tech companies - We foster environments and support infrastructure solutions that are conducive for tech transfer projects and deep tech scale-ups. - We rethink and redo entrepreneurial financing mechanisms. What this looks like, well, stay tuned. - We draw on scientific insights from the Joachim Faber Chair of Technology and Innovation and the Center for Decisions, Models, and Data, which back up and provide guiding evidence for DEEP's portfolio.

Launch Day! 🚀 Yesterday we proudly celebrated another milestone in our partnership between CKGSB and DEEP ESMT Berlin! We have launched the “Global Unicorn Program in Deep Tech” with an exclusive teaser breakfast event for some of the key players of Berlin’s startup ecosystem. During the event, the guests had the chance to hear key insights from CKGSB’s Founding Dean Bing Xiang and the Academic Director of the Institute for Deep Tech Innovation (DEEP) Francis de Véricourt. This initiative aimed to highlight our commitment to nurturing the next generation of unicorn founders. 🌟 Why This Partnership Stands Out: • DEEP: Experts in deep tech innovation. • CKGSB: Boasts a remarkable track record of training 151 unicorn founders. • ESMT Berlin: Consistently ranked among the top 10 business schools globally for executive education. Together, we form a powerful alliance dedicated to equipping entrepreneurs, executives and investors with the tools and knowledge to scale their deep tech businesses successfully. 🔗 Find out more about the Global Unicorn Program in Deep Tech which will take place at the end of October this year in Berlin: https://lnkd.in/e_yBhaGe Feel free to reach out to our team anytime!

It's a wrap! 💥 Yesterday we held the very first DEEP TECH SUMMIT at ESMT Berlin in cooperation with BDI - Bundesverband der Deutschen Industrie e.V. and Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft. Combining business and science, we discussed together with high-tech startup funds, VCs, industry experts, and startups how excellent research can be translated faster into industrial applications. Which adjustments need to be made to achieve this goal? Throughout each panel discussion, we collected at least 3 goals that will contribute to the soon-to-be-created white paper about deep tech in Germany. Thank you to all the speakers for their interesting insights: Julia Bauer, Thomas Bauernhansl, Kevin Berghoff, Christofer Bingener, Christian Bogatu, Britta B., Katharina Braig, Valerie Daldrup, Bastian Halecker, Stefan Hecht, Sophie H., Harald Holzer, Sarah Hölzl, Anna-Lena Jerzembeck, Felix Krause, Ulrich Kruse, Sabine Kunst, Thorsten Lambertus, Thomas Lange, Ingeborg Neumann, Iris Plöger, Felix Poernbacher, Martin Rahmel, Amelie Reigl, Jörg Rocholl, Romy Schnelle, Simon Schütz, Natalia S., Enrique Solano, Travis Todd, Alexander Türpe, Matthias Unbescheiden, Florian Uri, Josua Vieten, Daniel Volz. It was a pleasure to work together with BDI and Fraunhofer and especially to welcome so many interested attendees. See you next year! 🚀 #deeptech #innovation #deeptechgermany
