Nucleate Baltics Genesis – Unlock Your Biotech Potential!
Nucleate Genesis is a 12-week online program designed to transform innovative ideas into thriving biotech ventures. With meetings once a week, the program brings together aspiring entrepreneurs from across the Baltics, providing expert lectures, personal mentorship, and access to a dynamic community of industry leaders.
This program welcomes a wide range of expertise – from medicine and natural sciences to engineering and business – encouraging collaboration and diverse problem-solving approaches. Whether you're passionate about healthcare innovation or sustainability, Genesis offers the tools and network to turn your ideas into reality.
Participants can join one of two specialized tracks – Eco or Health – with three teams per track and 3-4 members per team. A total of six teams will compete for €5000+ worth of prizes at the final event, showcasing their progress and breakthroughs. The teams will be formed at the beginning of the program, so don't hesitate to apply solo!
