Hello Tomorrow was created in 2011 by a group of individuals convinced that science and technology need to form part of a toolkit of solutions to change our industries, sustain a growing population and help solve global crises. But the traditional model of technology transfer to bring solutions from lab to market, and from idea to impact, could not rise to this challenge. In turn, Hello Tomorrow has built, and now animates, a global ecosystem that facilitates ‘deep tech’ innovation through multiple activities. Over the course of nine editions, their Global Startup Challenge has received 30,000 applications from 132 countries, partnering with universities and research institutions worldwide to identify deep tech solutions that have real global impact. Hello Tomorrow then uses its unique position to identify and analyze deep tech trends and dynamics. Through their international events, they connect all key players to harness their full potential. Through consulting services in strategy and innovation and customised startups programs, they help companies to understand how deep tech will impact their business, how to stay competitive and launch new solutions.
