Basque Tek Ventures

A catalyst that transforms scientific discoveries into new business ventures

About

Basque Tek Ventures is a new initiative aimed at supporting and accompanying the creation of new technology-based companies (deeptech) supported by technologies generated by the centres belonging to the Basque Research & Technology Alliance (BRTA).

Projects based on high technology (deeptech) generate a greater impact and a higher productive transformation in terms of job creation and turnover, internationalisation, attracting investment and financing.

However, they are projects that are more difficult to implement, launch and consolidate, and have a high perceived risk that makes it difficult to obtain financing and attract talent.

Faced with this scenario, Basque Tek Ventures was created, which will have a positive impact on the main critical factors affecting the process of creating new technology-based start-ups, complementing and reinforcing the work being done by R&D agents and the Basque entrepreneurial ecosystem.

It is an itinerary that identifies and prioritises the technological assets with the greatest potential, supports the creation of high-performance teams and accompanies the start-up of the company and its access to the market.

An opportunity to develop and implement solutions and technologies to face present and future challenges.
