European Business Creation in Action

This panel presents the DeepTech Alliance (DTA) as a European platform enabling real business creation through collaboration between startups, corporates, investors, and innovation hubs.
The discussion will show how local hubs such as Sparkup Tartu Science Park connect to a broader European network, and how this collaboration translates into market access, industrial partnerships, investment and scaling opportunities.
Through first-hand perspectives from a DTA´s member hub (Sparkup Tartu Science Park), a DTA´s corporate partner (ELES), a DTA´s investor (RUNWAY) and a DTA´s startup alumni, the panel will illustrate how the DTA moves beyond networking to execution, turning innovation into business across borders.

Speakers:

  • Sagar Chandna – Senior Partner and CTO, Runway (investor)

  • Mojmir Ocvirk – Corporate Governance Business Adviser, ELES

  • Nabila Ghaddar – Startup Representative, Alloy Additive (DTA Alumni)

  • Pirko Konsa – Board Member, Sparkup Tartu Science Park (DTA Member)

  • Natalia Álvarez Liébana – Moderator, DeepTech Alliance
