Proximity to our excubated partners and access to DEI internal and external events
When we joined the Ecole Polytechnique Innovation Center in 2017, we were a team of four and had about €100k. When we left a year and a half later, we had raised more than €6m and there were more than 20 of us. We went from a small, early-stage project to a series A startup with its first prototype.
We joined X-Tech Booster. We came here for office space but we got so much more than that. Staff are very engaged in our project development and we attend lots of workshops on prototyping, accountancy, legal issues and so on.
Being able to produce a prototype is critical for any company with a hardware component. Without it, you would end up spending your time hunting down resources in various places. Here, we are lucky enough to be able to do everything in a single location and we really have all the materials we need for a first prototype.
An undertaking to not just have a postal address but to move some or all of your team to the Center, and fully engage in its activities
