Panel 6: Deep Tech Engine Financing - Who Pays for Labs, Platforms & Infrastructure ?

Beyond funding individual ventures, the success of deeptech ecosystems depends on robust enabling infrastructure—incubators, accelerators, shared laboratories, pilot facilities, and technology platforms that support innovation at scale. These assets are critical, yet often complex to finance, operate, and sustain over time.

This session brings together public and private stakeholders to explore how such infrastructures are funded and maintained. The discussion will examine blended financing models, long-term investment strategies, public-private partnerships, and governance approaches that ensure durability and impact. A strategic look at how to build and sustain the foundations that allow deeptech innovation to thrive.
