THE INNOVATION FORUM | The Activator Demo Day
by Nucleate Global Events Calendar
About this event
9 teams. One stage. The future of German biotech.
This June, Berlin becomes the meeting point for scientific founders, investors, and ecosystem leaders shaping the next generation of biotech in Europe.
The Innovation Forum Berlin is Nucleate Germany's flagship Demo Day — the culmination of our Activator 2026 program, where 9 teams of scientific founders present the biotech ventures they've spent months building from the ground up.
But the pitches are just part of the story.
What's in store
An evening built around the questions that matter most to early-stage biotech founders in Europe right now. Expect panels and keynotes tackling everything from company building and scaling to capital strategy and industry partnerships — featuring voices from across the German and European biotech ecosystem.
After the main program, stick around for a networking reception designed for the kind of introductions and conversations that don't happen over email.
Who should be in the room
Investors and VCs exploring early-stage biotech opportunities. Scientific founders building or considering building a venture. Industry professionals curious about what's emerging from Germany's academic ecosystem. Anyone who believes the best biotech companies start where bold science meets great people.
Program details coming soon
We're putting together something special. Team reveals, speaker announcements, and the full agenda will drop over the coming weeks. Follow Nucleate Germany on LinkedIn so you don't miss a thing.
