About
Tehnopol Science and Business Park offers practical AI adoption and business growth support for startups and SMEs, and is open to contributing these capabilities to European projects and programmes.
Our contribution can cover the journey from identifying a valuable AI use case to preparing a pilot, validating a business proposition and supporting international growth. The scope can be tailored to a project's target companies, sectors and expected outcomes.
Areas of service and expertise
- AI readiness and use-case assessment: clarify business needs, data readiness, feasibility and expected value.
- Pilot preparation and facilitation: define the challenge, pilot scope and success measures, and connect companies with suitable experts, research partners and technology providers.
- Startup acceleration and mentoring: support business models, value propositions, product validation, pilot customer connections and investment readiness.
- International growth: support partner discovery, market-entry preparation and connections to innovation ecosystems.
- Company engagement and capacity building: contribute company outreach, workshops, mentoring and matchmaking activities.
Potential role in EU projects
We welcome discussions with consortium coordinators, EDIHs, universities, research organisations, clusters and business support organisations. Tehnopol can contribute to activities focused on SME AI adoption, startup development, pilot facilitation and internationalisation, including the design and delivery of company support programmes.
The collaboration offer is open to European partners; the delivery model and participating-company eligibility can be agreed for each project or programme.
To explore cooperation, please share your project concept or call, target companies, expected outcomes and the role you would like Tehnopol to contribute.
