Science Creates Ventures is a venture capital firm specializing in early-stage Deep Tech investments. As part of the broader Science Creates ecosystem, it provides capital, specialized lab facilities, mentorship, and a robust network. This integrated approach supports scientific and engineering breakthroughs, enabling their evolution into high-impact businesses.
The organization was founded by Harry Destecroix, an exited entrepreneur whose company, Ziylo, emerged during his PhD.

This led to establishing the first Deep Tech incubator, expanding into the ecosystem and its venture arm, guided by a "by founders, for founders" philosophy.
Science Creates Ventures primarily serves emerging Deep Tech startups, offering resources to scale from discovery to commercialization. It also engages investors seeking opportunities in transformative fields.
