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.
