Join the Pool of Entrepreneurs: open invitation

In our program we are bringing seasoned entrepreneurs and starting (academic) teams actively together to better align the scientific basis of projects and their commercial opportunities. We value the point of view of entrepreneurs to add years of experience to our teams. This way we aim to accelerate their business development and enhance the impact of biotech-science on our society.  

We are always looking for entrepreneurs to support us with advice and the assessment of projects upon request, participation in the Panel of Entrepreneurs, or guidance of projects during a longer period of time as a member of the Projects Steering Committee. We really appreciate your active participation in the activities we organize. 

If you want to contribute to our learning community, please let us know. Together we will determine which way of collaboration fits best with our approach and your time available.  

We aim for a diverse Pool of Entrepreneurs to ensure the selection of diverse teams with broad knowledge, varied experiences, international backgrounds or upbringing and new perspectives. At the moment we are specifically looking for experienced entrepreneurs and experts in the domains of Industrial biotechnology/-production or Agro- and Food technology.
