Session Description
Universities and research centres are where bold ideas ignite — and at 4YFN26, those ideas take centre stage. As part of the University and Spin-off Track, this high‑energy session spotlights the most promising spin-offs emerging from cutting‑edge research and entrepreneurial talent.
Get ready for the final competition before 4YFN26 wraps up. Five early‑stage university spin-offs will step into the spotlight, each with only 4 minutes to convince a panel of specialised investors that they are the next breakthrough worth backing.
Get ready for quick pitches, clear ideas, and a lively on‑stage showdown between the finalists. After a quick deliberation, the jury will crown the 4YFN26 Best Spin-off.
Who will take the title and close the event on a high note? Get ready to meet them:
- Daan Stellinga, CTO, QSA Technology
- Dr. -Ing. Julian Hofmann, CEO & Co-Founder, Floodwaive
- Mohammad Azadifar, CEO & Co-Founder, EM Path
- Darío Sarmiento, Operations Director & Co-founder, AG Photonics
- Manel Cremades, Chief Strategy Officer, Healthtech Innovations
