HiSeedTech is taking a well-deserved summer break to recharge and will come back in September with fresh ideas and challenges.

The emphasis on preserving time for rest allows us to have fresh ideas and it's an excellent approach to nurture creativity and innovation. That said, we return in September with news and challenges for everyone, a break to return with even more desire to make a revolution in the deep tech ecosystem.

Although we're taking a break for vacation, we'd like to offer you a valuable suggestion: listen to our podcast "Fala-me de Ciência" on Spotify. While the podcast took a temporary pause, we encourage you to listen to all 22 episodes available. Listen to our guests discuss their career paths, research topics, challenges and choices. Hope they inspire you!

Find us on Spotify (here) and embark on a discovery journey.
