HR Matching

Recognising that human resources, a key factor in success, often remain a weak point in startups, Atlanpole offers the "Deeptech Matching" programme to its supported project leaders. This programme connects project leaders with strategic profiles to build a strong team and/or provides advice on recruitment for startups.

Access to Funding

The Challenge for Every Entrepreneur!
