Result description
CONNECT is a scale-up programme designed to support the growth and market integration of DeepTech startups across Europe. Developed and validated through the AccelerAction project, it provides a comprehensive set of tools, methodologies and engagement strategies to bridge the gap between cutting-edge technologies and market-ready solutions.
The programme facilitates collaboration between startups, corporates, investors and other key ecosystem players, helping to de-risk innovation, foster adoption and enable cross-border scalability.
What sets CONNECT apart is its tailored approach to DeepTech – a sector known for long development cycles and complex stakeholder dynamics.
By offering practical instruments and frameworks that address specific DeepTech challenges, Connect creates an enabling environment for technology transfer, pilot implementation and commercialization.
The result is a structured yet flexible programme that can be adapted to different regional contexts, stakeholder needs and innovation verticals – making it an effective tool for ecosystem builders, accelerators and public agencies aiming to strengthen their DeepTech innovation capacity.
Addressing target audiences and expressing needs
- Incubators / Accelerators
- I/we wish to transfer my/our IPR to an interested party
- Business plan development
CONNECT is a valuable and technically robust solution developed under the AccelerAction project. However, its successful commercialization requires leadership from an organization with established networks in the DeepTech ecosystem, experience in scaling complex technological solutions and credibility to engage investors, industry partners and early adopters. We are therefore targeting DeepTech accelerators, venture builders, corporate innovation teams and R&D-driven SMEs or startups with the capability and interest to take the solution further and maximize its market and societal impact.
