The last few months have been challenging for different reasons, but something that brought me a lot of joy was the opportunity to run Science Entrepreneur Club's Accelerator - the Innovator's Club - alongside Matthew McCann. It's been an amazing, super rewarding process. Grateful that I got to know some really amazing people dedicating their lives to improving our world through innovation - and I learned a lot while doing so! We worked to put eight start-ups, in the fields of 🔬 Life Sciences and 🌍 Planetary Health, through 10 weeks of coaching & networking to support on their growth trajectory. The program built up to a Showcase last week where they pitched to a couple dozen investors and we got to celebrate the last two months! A panel & investor vote then decided on a winner for a prize from our partners at London BioScience Innovation Centre (LBIC), PNO Consultants, First Create The Media and Koolen Consulting Ltd. Super grateful for really great testimonials from the Cohort. Thank you for making this program really great and I hope we were able to support you on your journey. And of course, congratulations to Alice Preston from Panthura! Cambridge Medixine Ltd. Cellertia Clotprotect Deep Blue BioTech EVE Medusa Pharmaceuticals MOMO Biotech Panthura Thank you to Tobias Wingbermühle and Matthew McCann (and the whole SEC team) for all the work you do & allowing me to contribute where I can!

Deeptech Investor summit at ETH Zürich It was great to meet again the alumni of CAS in Entrepreneurial Leadership in Technology Ventures (ELTV) at ETHZurich yesterday. One of the big questions of the summit is: how could we have a healthier ecosystem of entrepreneurship in this part of the world ? Many things are needed to have healthy startups growing into healthy unicorns, i.e. healthy ecosystem: 📚Availability of programs and trainings that help scientists/ techies to get into the world of business, so that we have technology actually is resolving a real-life problem 🏢 Larger innovative corporates which act almost as industry incubators encouraging spinoffs among their employees: the ecosystem mindset 🎓 Academic instutions and their close collaboration with industry 💶 Availability of financing, investors with diverse backgrounds who actually understand the tech startups they invest in 🌳Last but not least: a strong community. In the ups and downs of startup adventure, the founders need a community to share their challenges and successes. Super happy to see my peers continuing successfully their ventures: Hélène Iven & Sonia Meller making agriculture more data & analysis driven Digit Soil Alexandre H. C.
