Young Tech Enterprises is a place on a trade-fair floor rather than a programme. There is no curriculum, no cohort and no money attached, and the organisers take no shareholding.
Selected young companies working in climate, deep tech and robotics are given exhibition presence in the startup area of the Hannover fairground, a pitch stage, and access to the investors who attend the show. The audience is weighted towards industrial buyers, which is the main reason to be there.
No deadline is published. The call has historically opened in the fourth quarter of the year before the show.
What it actually costs you
Young Tech Enterprises is the startup area within Hannover Messe, held at the Hannover fairground. Selected young companies working in climate, deep tech and robotics get exhibition presence, a pitch stage and exposure to investors attending the show. No money is provided and no equity is taken, so this is a route to industrial customers rather than a funding programme.
