In its initial phase, the fund could provide up to <strong>CZK 1 billion<\/strong> in investments, with operations expected to begin next year. Structured as a <strong>fund of funds<\/strong>, it will channel resources into carefully selected venture capital funds. A key condition is that most of the capital must come from private investors, ensuring a stronger <strong>multiplier effect of public resources<\/strong>. The responsibility for selecting the funds will lie with the National Development Investment Bank, supervised by the National Development Bank.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Focus Areas: AI, Robotics, and Space Technologies<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The <strong>DeepTech Fund<\/strong> will target high-potential <strong>DeepTech start-ups<\/strong>, including research spin-offs, pre-seed stage companies, and innovative businesses operating in <strong>artificial intelligence (AI), robotics, and space technologies<\/strong>. According to Deputy Minister \u0160t\u011bp\u00e1n Hofman, this funding model\u2014already successfully implemented in other developed countries\u2014creates a powerful synergy between public and private capital. On one hand, it enhances professional, market-driven selection of projects; on the other, it secures stable financing opportunities for start-ups with strong <strong>innovative and growth potential<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>A Strategic Opportunity for the Czech Republic<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The fund comes at a decisive moment for the Czech start-up scene. The country currently ranks <strong>20th out of 24<\/strong> in the <strong>Europe Startup Nations Alliance (ESNA) index<\/strong>, highlighting the need for better conditions to foster innovation. To address this, the ministry is also preparing a <strong>new start-up law<\/strong>, expected to be presented in the first quarter of next year. Within this framework, the DeepTech Fund represents not only a financial instrument but also a <strong>strategic opportunity to boost the Czech start-up ecosystem<\/strong>, attract private investors, and transform breakthrough ideas in AI, robotics, and space into successful, competitive businesses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>AI image.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The DeepTech Fund supports Czech start-ups with up to CZK 1 billion, boosting innovation in AI, robotics, and space technologies to strengthen the tech ecosystem.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":15652,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[525],"tags":[],"yst_prominent_words":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-15656","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-en"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/axevera.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15656","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/axevera.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/axevera.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/axevera.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/5"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/axevera.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=15656"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/axevera.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15656\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":15657,"href":"https:\/\/axevera.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15656\/revisions\/15657"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/axevera.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/15652"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/axevera.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=15656"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/axevera.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=15656"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/axevera.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=15656"},{"taxonomy":"yst_prominent_words","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/axevera.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/yst_prominent_words?post=15656"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
