Curious how early-stage funding works? We're setting up a recurring session, for quantum founders or founders-to-be to dive into early stage funding.

We're joined by Nic Weiroster, Associate on the investment team at Ground State Ventures, a specialist early-stage venture fund.

​Nic will take us through how and when to approach your first check, and what’s possible with the Deep Matter One initiative.

​Deep Matter One 

​Deep Matter One, powered by Ground State Ventures, backs founders building quantum startups in the Netherlands, right from the beginning.

​Why? Your specialised partner from day one, even if you’re pre-product or pre-team. Providing initial funding on clean terms.

​What? Providing €100,000 initial funding from a team that deeply understands quantum. With a global network of operators, scientists, and investors that can help you make the right first steps.

​What we'll cover

• ​What they look for in a startup
