The EIC Tech to Market (T2M) Venture Building Programme has come a long way since its launch in the beginning of 2023. So far, in the "Team Creation" activity, we have welcomed 12 project teams with the goal of helping them to find the right talent to complement their skills, build a solid team and drive the process of bringing their technologies to the market. Do you want to know which projects are currently looking for entrepreneurial deep-tech talent like yours? Keep reading to find out how you can apply! 

 

Check here all the current openings!

 

How does the “Team Creation” activity works?

Once the project is onboarded in the Team Creation Phase of the programme, the process starts with an assessment of the current composition of the team aimed to identify strengths, gaps and future challenges. Based on this assessment, the programme supports the recruitment and selection of an Entrepreneurial profile who brings a business-oriented perspective into the project. 

This individual will work closely with the team for four to six months in a part-time format, with paid compensation. Their role is to leverage their experience and business insights to help the project advance in building a company and achieving its milestones. Since the programme focuses on building strong, long-term teams, this “residency period” allows both parties to explore and validate the potential for a future relationship—whether as a co-founder, advisor, or key team member, depending on the needs of the project.
