Investment thesis
IT-Translation operates a 'translation' model, seeding start-ups from their initial idea and co-founding companies emerging from public and private research. It deploys both human and financial resources to translate technology into products or services and to guide researcher-entrepreneurs into the business world. At a very early stage, the firm invests up to 300,000 euros per company through the IT-Translation fund, collaborating with innovation stakeholders across the ecosystem. The approach focuses on digital technology start-ups, and within four years of launching, more than 25 companies had been incorporated with its support.
