Munich’s Telura exits stealth with €4M to make deep geothermal economically viable

Telura has come out of stealth with €4 million and a bold claim: it can make deep geothermal economically viable almost anywhere on Earth. The problem with geothermal energy has never been the heat. The Earth’s core sits at roughly 5,000 degrees Celsius, and the thermal gradient beneath the surface is consistent enough that, in […]

How an AI system beat experienced doctors at diagnosing rare diseases

DeepRare, an agentic AI system integrating 40 specialised tools, outperformed medical specialists in identifying rare conditions in a head-to-head study published in Nature. For millions of people with rare diseases, the path to diagnosis is a labyrinth. Patients bounce between generalist GPs and specialists across years, sometimes decades, piecing together symptoms that fall outside textbook […]

From a dragonfly’s wing to a WorldTour saddle

Thomas Rettenwander was writing his doctoral thesis at Austria’s Montanuniversität Leoben when he first studied dragonfly wings in detail. Not for their beauty, but for their engineering. Dragonfly wings are a masterclass in structural minimalism: heavy fibres only where forces concentrate, a gossamer membrane everywhere else. Rettenwander spent years turning that biological blueprint into a […]

Vodafone bets on Amazon’s satellites to reach places fibre can’t

On the fringes of Mobile World Congress in Barcelona this year, Vodafone outlined a bet that feels both practical and a little ambitious: use satellites to solve one of mobile networks’ oldest headaches, how to connect towers that sit far from traditional infrastructure. Vodafone Group has agreed to use Amazon Leo, the low Earth orbit […]

Europe’s Deep-Tech Paradox

Europe does not suffer from a shortage of capital. What it lacks is the legal courage and analytical competence required to direct that capital toward the areas where it can create the greatest long-term value: SciTech startups. This gap shapes the entire continent’s innovation landscape, and Sweden is no exception. Even as Sweden is celebrated […]
