About Event
Grants and equity get deep tech to a pilot. Cheap debt and offtake contracts are needed for the first commercial plant.
Many ventures fall into the gap between the two. Who should carry that risk?
On the table:
• Why is a first-of-a-kind plant fundable but rarely bankable?
• Which instruments actually close the gap today?
• Who should carry offtake risk: corporates, the state or investors?
There are 8 seats, and attendance requires approval to keep the conversation small and focused.
Hosted by Jannis Duckek, a PhD candidate at the University of Münster researching how climate deep tech gets funded.
