Investing in Game-Changing Deep Tech

Mar 12, 2019

3:30pm – 4:30pm CT

Deep Technology has traditionally scared investors. As the speed of innovation increases and research institutions become even more intertwined with start-ups and big technology, investors are starting to warm up to the idea that they should explore investing in Deep Technology. This panel will bring together entrepreneurs, researchers and investors in Deep Tech to discuss investment and innovation trends around the world including how a significant amount of Deep Technology is coming from outside the United States. We will talk about how researchers can utilize a commercialization framework and investment lens in their research. We will also touch on how the investment community needs to change their thinking, patience, and risk-tolerance in order to invest in the Deep Tech space.
