Croatia

Matija Srbić is the coordinator of deep-tech venture builder Nuqleus at the Innovation Centre Nikola Tesla, a periodic one-year-long startup program developed in partnership with the Croatian startup ecosystem, industry leaders, and research institutions, with the goal of fostering entrepreneurship, technology transfer, and the creation of spin-offs. Nuqleus supports researchers and scientists in the transition from academia to the startup world, providing them with education, mentors, and access to financing. Through the YTILI program, Matija is hoping to learn more about successful deep-tech venture builders and build strong business connections that can accelerate the growth of the Croatian startup ecosystem.
