INFORMATION ABOUT THE EVENT PRODUCERS:


ENRICHERS AND ENRICH IN THE USA

The ENRICHers Collaborative Soft-Landing Hubs in North America (USA and Canada), spun-out of the ENRICH in the USA initiative, established a Network of European Research and Innovation Centres and Hubs throughout North America that mainly acts as a central contact point for European research and innovation actors - provide smart specialization support to global research and innovation actors interested in tech collaboration and commercialization opportunities in a specific technology domain and/or specific industry. These Hubs are integrated with the local/regional ecosystems and are able to introduce US and EU R&I stakeholders into that ecosystem, so they can best take advantage of business opportunities (through Proofs of Concept and Pilots), as well as investment and other partnership opportunities.

The ENRICH in the USA initiative, which started in April 2017, established a Network of European Research and Innovation Centres and Hubs throughout North America that mainly acts as a central contact point for European research and innovation actors - clusters, universities, R&D labs/centers, researchers, start-ups, Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) and corporations - seeking to grow and/or reinforce collaboration across the Atlantic. The mission of ENRICH in the USA was to provide collaboration and commercialization support services to European researchers and innovators in the USA and Canada, while facilitating their access to university-centric soft landing ecosystems, including investors, to maximize their chances of success in North America.

PAST EVENTS TESTIMONIAL:

Endorsement from Mitchell Kominsky, Futureland Ventures:

"I am an investor in early-stage startups that are creating a more sustainable, connected, and resilient future. I recently participated as a judge for a Silicon Valley Investment Forum with Angel Launch, and was very impressed by the quality of startups. In fact, I am in discussions with one of the startups about a possible investment; and am appreciative of Angel Launch making that connection. I highly recommend other investors to judge and attend the programs, and startups to attend or pitch."
