PhotonHub Europe, a European platform for supporting innovation and entrepreneurship in photonics and deeptech, is pleased to announce the launch of its second Investment Readiness Coaching and Investor Matchmaking Programme of the year. The programme is designed to help early growth stage deep tech start-ups dealing with innovative technologies and/or photonics to improve their pitch, present their financials, understand the due diligence process, demonstrate their success, practice pitching, and close deals with investors.

"Raising capital for deep tech companies can be a challenging and time-consuming task," said Tomasz Mazuryk, co-founder and seed investor at NetSprint.pl and FundingBox, who will be one of the mentors for the programme. 

Iwona Cymerman, mentor, and advisor at PhotonHub, added: "Our programme is designed to demystify the funding journey and provide the skills and knowledge to fund business growth. We have experienced mentors who can help start-ups navigate the process of seeking investment and increase their chances of success. We also have seamless links to value-adding opportunities in the wider innovation ecosystem that can provide valuable connections and resources for start-ups as they look to expand their digitization efforts."

The submission is open for applications until Apr 12, 2023 at 17:00 CEST.
