Are you a woman entrepreneur working in deeptech who has received EU funding? We need your voice.
As part of a broader effort to evaluate the effectiveness of European public funding programmes aimed at supporting women in tech and entrepreneurship, Sploro is gathering real stories and impact data from women like you.
This data will directly contribute to a white paper titled: “Advancing Women in Tech in the European Union through EU Public Funding Programmes” to be shared with EU policymakers, innovation stakeholders, and institutions. Your input will help shape better, more inclusive programmes in the future.
Why Participate?
By completing the short survey, you will:
- Contribute to meaningful research that aims to improve funding support for women entrepreneurs,
- Enter a giveaway to be featured in the upcoming Season 2 of Efecto Cascada, a podcast that explores the intersection of innovation, EU funding, and digital transformation.
Selected participants will be invited for a podcast interview, giving visibility to their story, their company, and their mission, in front of a pan-European innovation audience.

Who Can Participate?
We are looking for:
- Women entrepreneurs working in deeptech fields,
- Who have received support through an EU-funded programme (such as Women TechEU, EmpoWomen, or similar),
- And whose programme is either ongoing or ended within the last few years.
How to Apply?
To participate, please complete our Impact Assessment Survey.
The survey takes approximately 10 minutes and helps us measure the impact of EU funding initiatives supporting women entrepreneurs in deeptech.
Deadline: Submissions will be accepted until May 16, 2025.
Announcement: Selected participants will be announced on May 23, 2025.
