HIGH-TECH.NRW Demo Day #6
On May 22, 2025, HIGH-TECH.NRW and host NRW.BANK invite you to the Demo Day #6 in the heart of Düsseldorf. As a central hub for founders, investors, and companies in North Rhine-Westphalia, the state’s development bank is the ideal venue to bring together key players essential for the acceleration of young enterprises.
You can look forward to a prototype exhibition of pioneering start-ups, exciting pitches in front of an expert audience of investors and representatives from industry, science and politics, as well as plenty of inspiration and opportunities for exchange with highly innovative minds.
From maintenance, monitoring and analytics to food, health and sustainable materials – Batch #6 once again impresses with a remarkable range of innovative ideas, setting the stage for an extraordinary exhibition and compelling pitches.
The TOP 3 start-ups will be awarded prizes totaling 20,000 Euros by the Ministry of Economic Affairs, Industry, Climate Protection and Energy of the State of North Rhine-Westphalia.
We create network effects for the deep-tech ecosystem in NRW.
