Deep Launch Academy is a part-time 8-week program to develop you as a leader, capable of driving forward deep technology innovation, founding companies, and leveraging the next generation of world-changing technologies into the marketplace.
From ideation and strength-testing, all the way to developing an investment-ready business and pitching to a panel of investors, the Deep Launch Academy will guide you through company formation, customer discovery, competitor analysis, value proposition refinement, business strategy, investment readiness and brand development. You’ll work with their professional partner network, to develop strategies for financial planning, protecting intellectual property, and developing proof of principle systems. Through our new partnership with the Virtual Engineering Centre, you will also have access to digital engineering support to accelerate product design and de-risk your minimal viable product.
Candidates based at organisations within the Liverpool City Region are eligible for places fully funded by the Growth Platform to join the June 2021 cohort.
