An e-pitching session, organised by the European Innovation Council (EIC) pilot's Accelerator, which allows SME’s to virtually pitch their business ideas to key investors, will be taking place from 10:30 am to 12:00 pm CTE 18 September this year.

All members of the EIC Community will also be able to listen in remotely, giving those not participating in the session a great opportunity to see the potential of future versions of the online event. To do so, connect here: //zoom.us/j/722328814 

Investors listening in can observe the expanding portfolio of companies registered on the EIC ScaleUp EU tool; giving them real insight into the benefits of joining the platform.  

E-pitching will allow the six selected companies to virtually meet with four investors, each with strong expertise and a proven track record in this field: SolvayDOWEVONIK and BASF.  

The six companies in attendance include AdbiocompositesPewasSilicoLifeRay TechniqueGr3n Recycling and RadiSurf

The start-ups virtually attending have been selected by the investors within the EIC ScaleUp EU tool on the EIC platform and although this session is now closed, we will be planning similar events throughout the year.

Silicolife

Portugal-based Silicolife is another exciting company hoping to stand out during the pitching session. Working with optimised microorganisms and novel pathways for industrial biotechnology applications, SilicoLife will be hoping to gain support from our expert investors.
