1-on-1 Deep Tech Startup Entrepreneur Coaching

Most of the time, Deep Tech startups are lead by new entrepreneurs out of their Ph.D. and having little business and real life experience. Suddenly, they need to cope with new things such as product development, financing, marketing, sales, partnerships, etc. Even those having it 'in their blood' find it quite difficult and make costly mistakes, if not properly coached at the beginning on the fundamentals concepts that every entrepreneur need to quickly master to convert business opportunities.
