Deep Tech Bootcamps
The first Deep Tech Bootcamp ran as a 6-module program over two months, empowering MBA Fellows from Collège des Ingénieurs, PhD researchers from the Max Planck Institute, and Master's students from École Normale Supérieure (Paris) to transform cutting-edge scientific research into impactful ventures – from market exploration and IP to financing and stakeholder pitching.

The format keeps its structure — interdisciplinary teams, expert-led modules, a hands-on bootcamp, an investor-facing close — while the host institution and city change with every cohort.
Every edition is co-run with a research institution and its ecosystem of tech-transfer offices and business schools.
To empower researchers to transform cutting-edge scientific research into impactful, fundable ventures — covering market exploration, business models, intellectual property, financing and investor pitching.
PhD researchers and scientists from partner institutions, paired with MBA, Executive MBA and Master's talent who bring business and operating experience.
Deep Tech Bootcamp is a format, not a single fixed event. Each edition is co-run with a different research institution — sourcing its own technologies, faculty and participants — while keeping the same proven structure.
No. The format is designed around founder-level matching, entrepreneurial fit and project exploration — no solicitation, no recruitment booths, no noise.
Yes. Tech-transfer offices, universities, alumni communities, VC networks and startup factories can submit technologies and propose to host an upcoming edition.
Each edition is run in partnership with a research and business school institution - such as Collège des Ingénieurs, the Max Planck Institute, DFKI or southwestX - which rotates from cohort to cohort, along with the faculty who teach each edition.
