The investment strategy of funds applying to the PFR Deep Tech program should be centered around financing advanced technologies. Specifically, we are looking for funds with a sectoral focus that includes areas such as:

•  Artificial Intelligence (AI)
• Quantum Computing
• Advanced Defense Systems
• Robotics
• Space Exploration and Technology
• Broad-spectrum Cybersecurity

We estimate that under the PFR Deep Tech initiative, we will allocate funds to 3–5 VC funds with a sector-specific strategy. This could translate into support for 50–80 companies* with such a profile.

*This number depends, among other factors, on the level of contributions from other private and institutional investors to the funds. The allocation from PFR Ventures cannot exceed 50% of a given fund’s capitalization.
