Event

What do investors and corporate partners actually expect from a startup? Beyond the pitch deck, what happens behind closed doors? Join us for an informal fireside chat where we unpack the realities of these conversations.

Joining the discussion are Peter Ersman (Executive Vice President, New Ventures & Services at Kemira) and Matti Rönkkö (Managing Director at Kiilto Ventures).

Key discussion points include:

  • What makes a startup “partnership-ready” or investable
  • Where and how corporate partner or investor can add value?
  • How expectations differ between investors and corporate partners
  • Corporates and investors as scaling partners
  • Common mistakes founders make

For whom?

We are organizing this session as part of our EriCa Reactor accelerator program, but in addition to our program participants we also welcome other deep tech startups, university spinoffs, and scaleups looking to refine their outreach strategy.

Event is held online via Zoom on May 12, 14.00 – 15.00 (UTC+3).
