Case stories

“DeepTech Alliance connects stakeholders to challenge business-as-usual and foster collaboration between tech startups, incubators, and corporates. Exchanging best practices with our Corporate Peers in DTA has helped us propel some of our own PoC projects. Learning about the philosophies of different corporates helps us improve our own innovation processes.”

General Manager BD, IHI Corporation (Japan)
Case stories

The DTA Clean Energy program helped us extend our reach to prominent energy related startups on an international level. It also gave us a direct insight into the energy market trends and state of the art technology.
The outcome was great and produced within a considerably condensed timeframe, which we appreciate.
