Our partners review all projects within their internal R&D organizations. They focus heavily on the foundational science and scientific excellence, data, IP, competitive advantage compared to what is currently under development or on the market. So try to address these points in the deck.

Also important is an initial development plan highlighting near term and longer-term milestones, and financials required to reach them. But we understand that this is not easy, especially for academic scientists, so if this is not yet available, then also fine. We can help in setting this up. We are looking for a deck with no more than 20 slides. Note:
- Be sure to show off any relevant data, and figures, as opposed to just describing the results as bullet points!
- Don’t forget the team.
- At this stage, and generally in the early stages, any NPV based calculations are unnecessary, so please do not include them.
- Also, avoid very high level intro and/or fluffy slides as we and our partners usually know that already. Rather, come to the point (and data), what you believe are your USPs, quickly.
- And whatever you claim; it should be backed by (ideally your) data.
You are welcome to add as many backup slides as you deem relevant; if possible, please reference them in the main deck.
Share any additional documents with us (up to two) (max size per file is 6MB in PDF format)
Please make sure your documents do not contain confidential info and is also nowhere marked with "confidential" otherwise we will not be able to consider your application. PLEASE NAME YOUR FILE as follows, updating your file name accordingly: “c1_Your File Name”, “c2_Your File Name”
