Scaling a deep tech startup from an IP or university spin-out to a global unicorn is a daunting journey. It requires navigating complex challenges, making bold strategic bets, and executing relentlessly on a groundbreaking vision. Founders must possess unwavering determination and the grit to make tough decisions in a fiercely competitive landscape.
That is why we are honored to present our second 2024 Masterclass episode with Andrea Traversone, Managing Partner at the NATO Innovation Fund (NIF). Andrea has been investing in deep tech companies for more than 25 years and shares a wealth of insights and practical tips in this conversation.
