Seed Stage
Engagement Package
Commercial operator and strategic partner. Twenty years building and commercialising ventures across four continents. Turning breakthrough science into market momentum.
Most deeptech ventures lose deals they should have won.
Seed StageCommercial
Launch Program
Walk through the proposals, executive summaries and sales presentations of most Seed-stage deeptech ventures and you see the same thing every time. PhD language written for grant reviewers. A website built in an afternoon. Founders describing the technology differently in the same meeting.
The market expects a funded commercial venture to show up like one. Most do not. And the market moves on quietly - no rejection, no feedback. Just silence. That gap has a name. Techno-commercial translation. It is the most underdeveloped capability in European deeptech.
A commercial launch program that rebuilds the full commercial infrastructure around your science. Techno-commercial translation, GTM strategy and market entry - not consulting, not advice. Field operator work, done alongside you, inside the venture. Built to be handed back so you run it from there.
Equity-blended structures available for cash-constrained ventures. Final structure discussed in proposal.

Techno-commercial translation
All materials rebuilt from the ground up - from PhD language to market-ready clarity.
Proposal engineering
Proposals built as decision-making tools for multiple stakeholders who all need to say yes.
Pitch deck and sales presentations
Rebuilt to communicate immediate value to Fortune 500 partners.
Executive summaries
Clear, compelling documents that give decision-makers what they need in the format they expect.

Twenty years. Fifteen ventures. Four continents.
Backed by Swiss and Swedish Family Offices. Funded by EIC and Vinnova. Researched by Karolinska Institutet.
Twenty years building and commercialising ventures across industries. The last six at the frontier of European deeptech. A decade of pattern recognition across the same commercial failure points - and the playbook to fix them.
Commercial operator and strategic partner. The person who builds the commercial infrastructure alongside you, then hands it back so you run it.
If the science is ready and the commercial infrastructure is not - this is that conversation.
