Apply nowWhat You'll Get
Strategic business advisory that drives results
We go beyond theory. We work with you to sharpen your market focus, validate your business model, and test your product–market fit. Together, we design a go-to-market strategy that fits your industry and craft a pitch deck and brand story that make your vision impossible to ignore. The result: a clear path from idea to traction, backed by strategy and focus.
Technical support that builds real progress
Deep tech deserves deep support. You’ll work side by side with G-nous’ expert team to shape your product roadmap, refine your technology, and bring your MVP to life. From early research to technical execution, we help you turn complex ideas into solid, scalable products.
Visibility and connections that unlock opportunities
Your work deserves the right audience. Through G-nous’ network of advisors, partners, corporates, and investors, you gain visibility and access to growth opportunities that accelerate your venture. We connect you to key industry ecosystems, guide your fundraising strategy, and help you build relationships that last beyond the programme.
Why Apply
Acceleration that fits your vision. Designed around your project.
Forget generic mentorship. We start with a one-to-one session to map your real needs and goals and then design a custom 4-month acceleration journey focused on what truly matters to your project. Every session, every advisor, every milestone is handpicked to give you exactly the guidance, tools, and network you need to scale with impact.
DeepTech and venture-building expertise
We’re not just mentors — we’re engineers, data scientists, and founders who build deep tech ventures every day. With proven experience in AI, SpaceTech, and Robotics, we know both the technology and the business behind it. That mix of technical depth and founder perspective lets us help you move from concept to company with confidence.
Flexible and Founder-Friendly
We know what it means to juggle research, development, and early growth. That’s why the programme offers a remote and adaptable format, giving you the freedom to focus on what really matters. Every session is built to move your project forward with purpose, without distractions or wasted time.
We are looking for projects that can transform industries with AI, SpaceTech, or Robotics, tackle real market challenges, and demonstrate the potential for tangible impact. Bold, innovative, and technically strong ideas have a place here — whether you are just starting out or refining your prototype.
We welcome research teams, early-stage projects, and groups that may still be at the concept or prototype stage. You don’t need to have a registered company or a fully developed product.
What matters most is the quality of the idea, its technical depth, and its potential to become a scalable venture.
