Starting a company is (relatively) easy, scaling it is a whole different story.

The EIC Scaling Club team is determined to grow the value and impact of our selected company members, and one way to do that is by surrounding them with top-notch mentors who can provide advice on a wide variety of business challenges.

Following our open call for mentors last February, we are thrilled to present you with the list of 48 people who will be guiding the first cohort of European deep tech scale-ups to new heights.

Please find the list below and on this dedicated page, separated by supported market group. 

We are looking forward to welcoming more esteemed mentors in the next cohort of selected companies!
