Travel grant Vivatech Paris 2026

Important results from the project

The goal of the project was met. The aim was to establish contact with foreign VCs and CVCs and thereby expand our footprint in the European investor ecosystem and also to establish contacts with potential industrial partners. We participated in the Vivatech conference in Paris as part of the Business Sweden´s business delegation. Business Sweden gave increased visibility and authority to our company, which significantly increased our opportunities visibility at an event with 145,000 visitors.

Expected long term effects

The effects of the result are improved opportunities to close our financing round through a larger pipeline with relevant investors. The long-term effects of this enable an acceleration of the company´s development which in turn can give Sweden and Europe a maintained lead in physical AI where our company has a technical advantage with a world model AI, which in turn can lead to strengthened competitiveness and sovereignty of Swedish and European industry.

Approach and implementation

The project was carried out in collaboration with Business Sweden who did a fantastic job with introductions to relevant actors and booked meetings with VC, CVC and industrial companies at the Vivatech conference in Paris, one of Europe´s largest tech conferences with 145,000 visitors. The project followed the schedule with minor adjustments due to the expanded scope (Vivatech AI challenge award and EIC Accelerator panelist).
