Hello Tomorrow Global Challenge 2019 for Deeptech Entrepreneurs Worldwide (€100K Grand Prize and more)

Deadline: September 13, 2019*

The Hello Tomorrow Global Challenge 2019
https://www.opportunitydesk.org/2019/06/11/hello-tomorrow-global-challenge-2019/
is now open! The Hello Tomorrow Global Challenge is a worldwide renowned
science & technology startup competition designed specifically to
address the needs of deep tech entrepreneurs across several different
industries and technologies.

The Challenge was created in 2013 by two PhD students, Xavier Duportet
and Arnaud De La Tour, who realised that the resources needed to propel
emerging technologies were different from those of traditional web and
mobile innovation. The Challenge gives scientists and deep tech
entrepreneurs around the globe a platform for their research and
projects, providing participants with equity-free funding, global
visibility and connections with key players in the deep tech innovation
network and other fellow entrepreneurs. To date, previous early-stage
participants have raised more than $300 million in funding.

If you’re developing a new deep technology that can transform our lives,
planet, or our industries, then they’re looking for YOU.
