We are the missing link between scientific research, technology, ventures and market needs.
We love to innovate, to build, to change, to evolve.
Day One is a Startup Studio aimed at launching innovative companies from Technology Transfer projects.
Our mission is to promote the development of deep tech
startups and spin-offs from European research initiatives
and pioneering universities, transforming disruptive
technologies into marketable products.
We are constantly looking for innovations that enhance
scientific research and have a disruptive impact on
business and society, making it safer, healthier, more
sustainable and inclusive.
A project, a journey, an experience, a love story…
everything starts with a Day One!
We have acquired an extensive expertise with the
management of EU funded research and innovation
projects.
Our aim is not only helping you with the
grants, but become your partner to turn ideas into
structured R&D projects with clear market-oriented
scopes.
Day One’s speciality is the knowledge of the full
cycle of innovation management.
Check out our Venture Building model.
Fundraising
Since 2013, we got more than
€80M for technology transfer
initiatives through private and
public funds, enabling
founders to translate scientific
knowledge into competitive
products and deliver successful
solutions to all the world.
Ideas Killed
We only invest in projects we
strongly believe in. More
often than not, an idea isn’t a
viable business.
We can say “no” to several
opportunities, but you will
always know what to do to
make us change our opinion.
