Outline of the event
- point (e.g. of a statement)
- Scientific and technological "seeds" are being created in universities, research institutes, and corporate laboratories, but it takes a lot of effort before they sprout into practical applications. The Tech Planter, organized by LIVERNESS and its partners, is an ecosystem that aims to serve as a planter to discover these seeds and help them sprout into business. The "Deep Tech Grand Prix" is a program aimed at discovering and fostering technology seeds and entrepreneurs in the real tech domain (manufacturing, robotics, mobility, IoT, artificial intelligence, materials, energy, etc.).
