Technology Readiness Studio
Making European invention acquirable
We take promising technologies from European universities and research institutes in three steps to the point where an industrial buyer acquires them. No stand-alone business building required.

- Identify & ValidatePHASE 1

- Qualify for salePHASE 3
- Acquired by an industrial buyerTRL 7–8
The gap
Many valuable technologies are too small to become companies and too early to be products. Start-up investors pass; corporate buyers wait for proof. Nodus bridges that gap by providing the funds and embedded business resources required to reach acquisition readiness.
