DeepTech Alliance welcomes our corporate, service provider, investor partners and investors interested in our network, deeptech startups & scaleups, alumni, and DTA members to Explore 2025 — our annual flagship gathering of Europe’s deeptech ecosystems.

This is a great opportunity to:

  • Discover the latest trends and developments in deeptech innovation;

  • Meet and engage with some of Europe’s most promising mature startups and scaleups;

  • Build relationships with investors, startups, and corporates through curated 1:1 matchmaking sessions;

  • Connect with Alliance members – the top deeptech support organizations from 17 leading deeptech hubs across Europe.

The event features 2 dynamic tracks, hosted in parallel:

The Content & Pitch Track: Explore emerging trends in deeptech through expert panels and keynotes, curated by Deeptech Labs. Topics will span the domains covered by DeepTech Alliance, manufacturing, energy, utility, buildings, advanced materials, next-gen compute and more. Selected startups from DTA's business creation programs will pitch.

The Match Track: Using our matchmaking platform CrowdWorks, corporates and investors in our network can meet handpicked startups 1:1. Peer-to-peer meetings will also be available to foster real business opportunities.

As DeepTech Alliance continues to grow, welcoming more countries, members, and programs, we’re excited to host Explore 2025 as a stand-alone event for the entire Alliance community to connect, share, and spark collaboration — all in one day, in one place. Join us this year in London with our host DeepTech Labs.

We have a limited number of tickets in each category and they are allocated based on first come first serve basis. Invitations to partners, preferred investors, alumni startups and members have been sent out - reach out to us if you believe you should have received an invitation.

For any questions, or if you are interested in this event and would like to receive invitation, please contact us at contact@deeptechalliance.com

We’re looking forward to a spectacular Explore 2025!
