Deep Tech represents scientific and engineering breakthroughs that address global challenges like climate change, resource scarcity, food security, energy transition and healthcare. These technologies\u2014ranging from advanced AI and quantum computing to biotechnology, robotics, nanotechnology, and clean energy systems<\/strong>\u2014<\/span>have the potential to reshape industries and create entirely new markets. However, the commercialisation journey for Deep Tech startups is fraught with unique challenges, including long development cycles, heavy upfront investment, and significant technical risks compared to traditional tech ventures.<\/p>

Unlike conventional startups, Deep Tech ventures require longer development phases, often facing substantial R&D efforts before reaching product-market fit (PMF). These ventures typically need 35% more time and 48% more capital<\/strong><\/span> than traditional startups to generate revenues. For example, the average time to Series A for Deep Tech startups is approximately 18 months longer<\/strong><\/span> than for software startups. This means Deep Tech founders and their investors face higher dilution and more capital-intensive scaling journeys. Additionally, the teams driving these startups often come from academic or scientific backgrounds, which, while providing the necessary technical expertise, may lack the commercial experience needed to scale successfully. Beyond team and capital challenges, Deep Tech startups also face heightened technology risk<\/em>. Cutting-edge technologies do not always function as intended, adding another layer of uncertainty to the already complex equation of commercialisation.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Europe\u2019s strategic position in Deep Tech<\/p>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Despite these hurdles, Europe is uniquely positioned to become a global hub for Deep Tech excellence. In 2023, venture capital (VC) funds in Europe invested more than \u20ac10 billion in early-stage Deep Tech startups<\/strong><\/span>, reflecting a growing interest in supporting disruptive innovations. The continent boasts strong foundational research, with six of the world\u2019s top 20 computer science institutions located in Europe<\/strong>,<\/span> and a well-educated talent pool with nearly 1.5 times the number of STEM graduates compared to the US.<\/span> Europe also leads in intellectual property protection, with more than 193,000 patents registered in 2023<\/strong><\/span> through the European Patent Office (EPO), a significant percentage of which are linked to advanced technological innovations in Deep Tech. In addition, public sentiment is also highly supportive, with 90% of Europeans recognizing the positive influence of science and technology on society.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

The innovation valley of death<\/p>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

One of the biggest challenges for Deep Tech startups is navigating the Innovation Valley of Death\u2014the critical phase between early-stage research and commercial viability, where funding often dries up. Private investors, particularly venture capital firms, tend to shy away from this stage due to the high uncertainty and long timelines<\/strong><\/span> required for technological validation and market adoption. As a result, many promising Deep Tech ventures struggle to secure the resources they need, even when their innovations have transformative potential. In Europe, most Deep Tech venture funding at the pre-seed (\u20ac0-1m), seed (\u20ac1-4m), and Series A (\u20ac4-15m) stages<\/span><\/strong> comes from domestic investors, leaving a significant funding gap for startups attempting to scale.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

The role of EU public funding in bridging gaps<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

This is where public funding<\/a><\/strong>, like the European Innovation Council (EIC) Accelerator<\/a>,<\/strong> becomes vital in Europe. While private venture capital often focuses on startups with quicker returns, the EIC specifically targets Deep Tech companies in the Innovation Valley of Death. The EIC<\/strong><\/a> offers up to \u20ac17.5 million in a combination of grants and equity<\/strong><\/span> to help these startups overcome funding gaps, validate their technologies, and scale towards commercialization. Since 2021, the EIC has awarded over \u20ac4 billion to 631 companies<\/span><\/strong>, addressing the funding gap that exists at this critical stage of development. By de-risking breakthrough innovations, public funding<\/strong> <\/a>makes these companies more attractive to private investors, helping them to secure later-stage investment and avoid stagnation. In addition, the Commission has recently launched a Trusted Investors Network<\/a><\/span><\/strong> bringing together a group of investors ready to co-invest in innovative deep-tech companies in Europe together with the EU. These investors will work together with support from the EIC to boost investment and exchange best practices when investing in the deep tech sector.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
