Falling Walls is partnering with Atlantic, a European pre-seed venture capital fund, to launch an investment prize for European researchers who are ready to build a company. The prize will award EUR 100,000 to an ambitious researcher, along with access to experienced investors and the wider innovation ecosystem to help bring their project from lab to market. Eligible applicants are researchers conducting scientific research at a European institution who are currently pursuing a PhD or received a PhD or Master’s degree less than five years ago; incorporated projects may also apply, provided they have not yet received private funding. Applications take 5–10 minutes
