Deep Rising is our dynamic 6-month hybrid accelerator explicitly designed to empower early-stage deep-tech startups and research-to-business projects. Our mission is to fuel your innovations and support you to build thriving businesses. Deep Rising is a programme that aims to achieve: 1. Product-market fit: evident progress towards providing a focused solution for a clear target market 2. Fundable status: having a calculated and fundable team formation, cap table, and financial plan. We offer a tailored programme: Entirely customised and unique with weekly to monthly mentoring sessions and a dedicated lead mentor for each team. Experts & advisors are made available depending on the team’s needs , e.g., Venture builders (co-founders, advisors, board members).
The programme fee for the venture building activities ranges depending on each case, but it averages around €50000 package for the 6-month programme. The conditions can be negotiable and we accept part of the payment as a convertible loan. We also reserve the right to invest back (or even more) in the company if we want to continue working with the company afterwards. For EIC beneficiary participants we are offering the same package for €35000.
We don't promise investment. NSV invests only in companies it has previously worked with through its venture-building activities, in order to validate the investment potential.
