🔥 Is Europe at an innovation crossroads? 🇪🇺 Ever wondered why some of our brightest startups head Stateside? 🇺🇸
Thrilled to share the latest The Scale Factor episode featuring Gerard Hoffmann, CEO for Luxembourg at Proximus Luxembourg and Managing Director of Clarence ! 🎙️ Thank you Gérard!
Gerard pulls no punches as we dive deep into:
💡 The "American spirit" & his early Silicon Valley lessons that still resonate today.
💰 Why a staggering 1/3 of top European startups still seek US funding (and what Luxembourg 🇱🇺 can do about it!).
🤝 Cracking the code: Secrets to successful corporate-startup collaborations (Hint: It's about more than just tech!).
🐢 The European vs. US sales cycle gap – and its critical link to the productivity divide. Is AI the answer?
🤖 AI adoption in Europe: What are the real blockers holding enterprises back?
🚗 Is Europe losing its competitive edge? (A hard look at industries like automotive vs. China 🇨🇳).
⚖️ Regulation: A catalyst or a brake on innovation?
🎓 From research to revenue: How can we better nurture spin-offs and attract global talent?
This is a MUST-WATCH for anyone passionate about Europe's tech future, innovation, and building a thriving startup ecosystem. Gerard's experience is gold! 🚀

🚨 Big news from Luxembourg’s biotech scene!
We’re proud to announce our investment in invitrolize, the pioneering startup behind ALIsens® — the world’s first animal-free in vitro model to detect respiratory risks from inhalable chemicals before products hit the market.
This breakthrough tackles a major blind spot in toxicology and sets a new global benchmark for safety, ethics, and regulatory compliance.
👏 Huge kudos to founders Arno Gutleb, Sabina Burlă, Asier Sesma for translating over a decade of research into a globally scalable solution. The journey from lab to market is never easy.
Backed by the Luxembourg Institute of Science and Technology (LIST) and now scaling with support from Expon Capital’s Digital Tech Fund.
🧪 Safer products.
🌍 No animal testing.
🚀 Ready for global scale.
