Investment thesis
BIND positions itself as one of Europe's largest open innovation platforms and venture client networks. Rather than investing capital or taking equity, it links startups from around the world with over 100 industry-leading Basque venture clients — established companies, SMEs, and public sector bodies — to deliver paid smart industry projects and develop proofs of concept for market validation. Programs include an Open Innovation Programme with Basque companies and a GovTech track focused on public sector digital transformation challenges. The initiative emphasizes real contracts, market access, mentorship, and immersion in the Basque industrial ecosystem, and is promoted by SPRI and the Basque Government.
