Fund It Like a Scientist: Unlocking Grants, Growth & Groundbreaking Ideas
If you’re building the next big thing in tech, health, or sustainability - but grants feel like a mystery or a myth - this session is for you.
Join Victoria Garcia, scientist, founder, and grant-winner behind Quick Labs and BindEthics, as she breaks down the science of securing non-dilutive funding. Victoria has personally secured over £500,000 in grant funding in under two years - and she’ll share the exact strategies and mindsets that helped her do it.
Expect practical advice, honest insights, and real examples that show how scientists and innovators can thrive without a safety net of VC capital.
This is more than a funding workshop. It’s a call to action for scientific entrepreneurs and green tech visionaries ready to build, test, and grow bold ideas - and for supporters who want to fuel that future.
Who should attend:
- Founders working in science-based sectors (Greentech, HealthTech, DeepTech)
- Early-stage startups or SMEs interested in non-dilutive funding
- Innovation leads and ecosystem builders
You’ll leave with:
- A framework for approaching grants like a strategic growth tool
- Guidance on what funders really want
- Ideas on how to leverage labs, mentors and infrastructure to go from “idea” to “impact”
