Investment Gap, Adoption, Diversity, Talent, Quantum and AI.

Europe leads in public support and fundamental research for quantum technology but struggles with coordination, private investment, and talent development. From aerospace and defense to pharma and chemicals, quantum is set to revolutionize industries essential to Europe’s competitiveness and sovereignty. To remain globally relevant and self-sufficient, Europe must boost investments and develop expertise across the entire supply chain, from R&D to manufacturing and real-world applications. At GITEX Europe, deep tech takes center stage. From fighting climate change to disrupting industries, this track dives into the barriers holding back university spinouts, the push to attract more entrepreneurs, and the race to build talent hubs. Expect sharp insights on investment, exit strategies, and diversityâ€”and why deep tech is Europe’s ticket to staying ahead in the global digital economy..

Sovereign cloud. 5g & fiber. Data centres. Connected cities and smart infrastructures.

Europe stands at the cusp of a digital revolution, powered by 5G, cloud computing, advanced data centers, and smart, connected cities. However, significant macro-level challenges threaten to slow our progress: fragmented deployment strategies, difficulties in justifying 5G investments, a widening digital divide, data center capacity gaps, and a scarcity of skilled talent. In this track, we will address these hurdles, providing a platform to forge solutions and catalyse Europe’s digital transformation.

Founders Summit, Venture and Corporate Innovation Summit.

Unicorn founders are rewriting the rules, scaling fast while navigating disruption, sustainability, and the evolving regulatory landscape. But how do European policies shape their growth, and what does it take to thrive in a region known for its complex ecosystems? VCs are chasing the next wave of industry-defining startups in an increasingly competitive and volatile marketâ€”yet how are they adapting to the unique opportunities within Europe’s innovation hubs? Corporate venture capital and R&D are merging agility with expertise, driving breakthroughs in AI, deeptech, and climate tech. But what role does the European ecosystem play in fostering these collaborations, and how can regulations accelerateâ€”or hinderâ€”progress? Meanwhile, university spin-offs are turning academic brilliance into real-world impact, and women are proving that diversity isn’t just essentialâ€”it’s a winning strategy. How can we ensure these voices are amplified across Europe’s startup landscape? From groundbreaking ideas to transformative collaborations, the 10X Stage is the ultimate platform where unicorns, founders, investors, and CVCs come together to define what’s next. Join us as we explore the challenges, opportunities, and innovations shaping the future of entrepreneurship in Europe and beyond.
