About
imec.istart Spain is looking to meet ambitious early-stage deep-tech startups, university spin-offs and research teams developing defensible technologies with strong commercial potential.
We combine early-stage investment with hands-on acceleration, helping founders move from advanced research and validated technology toward a scalable company, market entry and follow-on funding.
We are particularly interested in teams working on:
-
Semiconductor and microelectronics innovation
-
Advanced hardware, sensors and embedded systems
-
Photonics, imaging and sensing technologies
-
AI-enabled hardware and industrial technologies
-
Nano- and microtechnologies
-
Sustainable energy, climate and circular-economy solutions
-
Materials, electronics and other science-based innovations
We welcome conversations with founders raising pre-seed or seed funding, research groups preparing a spin-off, technology-transfer offices, corporates seeking innovation partnerships, and investors interested in co-investment opportunities.
