Through CVC, startups get fast-track access to CERN technologies, from lasers and cryogenics to data management and precision synchronization, along with support from CERN experts. The program also connects companies to its network of investors, incubators and service providers, helping them find funding, mentoring and routes to market. CVC is entirely equity-free, and startups at any stage from CERN Member and Associate Member States can apply.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3614581 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"3614581\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1536\" height=\"711\" src=\"https:\/\/teaduspark.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/CERNCVC-1536x711.png\" class=\"attachment-1536x1536 size-1536x1536 wp-image-20551\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/teaduspark.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/CERNCVC-1536x711.png 1536w, https:\/\/teaduspark.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/CERNCVC-300x139.png 300w, https:\/\/teaduspark.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/CERNCVC-1024x474.png 1024w, https:\/\/teaduspark.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/CERNCVC-768x355.png 768w, https:\/\/teaduspark.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/CERNCVC.png 1723w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1536px) 100vw, 1536px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-befbb88 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"befbb88\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-976e2ab e-grid e-con-full e-con e-child\" data-id=\"976e2ab\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d623495 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"d623495\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><strong>Startups<\/strong><br\/>CVC gives you access to CERN technologies and experts without giving up equity.
