NEIL connects promising university deep tech innovations with the commercialization expertise, venture-building support and capital they need to reach the market.
Across our network of universities, we scout and prepare high-potential innovations in climate and agriculture, bioeconomy and biosciences, and energy. We support them with preliminary commercialization preparation, then connect them with specialist venture builders, partners and investors.
