The third episode in Deep Tech series features Stéphane Ouaki, from the newly established agency that aims to boost EU's competitiveness through more efficient transition of knowledge from academia and RTOs to SMEs and industry, the European Innovation Council (EIC). In this conversation we discuss the reasons for the EC to support Deep Tech through Horizon Europe and how it can support the attainment of the EC's three main priorities: the digital and green transitions and a better health system. 

This is the third episode of a 3 part series. In Part 1 we explored how can Deep tech reshape the future of R&I, featuring João Claro, CEO of INESC TEC, on the role of RTOs in managing deep tech innovation; Jonathan Wareham, Professor of Information Systems, ESADE Business & Law Schools, on what is deep tech and, last but not least, Stéphane Ouaki, on Deep Tech and Horizon Europe.

In our second and third parts (3 podcasts in each part) we are going to be looking at deep tech in application and how it can contribute to Europe’s big strategic goals. Part 2 will be dedicated to the Green Transition and Part 3 will be dedicated to Digital Transformation. We will be publishing 2 podcasts per week on The Insider and the INESC Brussels HUB media page, as well as on Science Business website. The three parts of this deep tech podcasts series will be widely disseminated in all the major podcast platforms (Google podcasts, Apple podcasts, Spotify and others) as well through the INESC and Science Business websites, newsletters and social networks.
