Deep-Tech Startup คืออะไร ?
หลายคนได้ยินชื่อแล้วอาจทำหน้างง ดังนั้นมาทำความรู้จักกับ deep-tech startup กันก่อนดีกว่า

Deep-tech startup เป็นสตาร์ทอัพที่ใช้วิทยาศาสตร์ในการสร้างสรรค์นวัตกรรมที่เป็นแกนของธุรกิจ โดย deep-tech startup ยังสามารถแบ่งแยกย่อยได้อีกหลายหมวด เช่น ปัญญาประดิษฐ์ (AI), Augmented/ Virtual Reality (AR/ VR), Internet of Things (IoT), หุ่นยนต์, วัสดุขั้นสูง, วัสดุชีวภาพ

แค่ฟังก็ดูยากแล้ว แต่ด้วยความยากนี่แหละที่เป็นจุดแข็งทำให้ deep-tech startup นี้มีคู่แข่งน้อย เพราะต้องอาศัยความรู้ความเชี่ยวชาญเฉพาะด้าน อีกทั้งยังได้รับความคุ้มครองจากการจดสิทธิบัตรได้จึงยากที่จะลอกเลียนแบบ แต่ความยากนี้ก็เป็นจุดอ่อนได้เช่นกันหากไม่ได้ศึกษาเรื่องโอกาสทางการตลาดให้ดีก่อนออกสู่ตลาด แม้จะยากแต่ไม่ใช่เป็นไปไม่ได้ อย่าลืมหาผู้ช่วยดี ๆ ที่ตรงสายเพื่อที่จะเร่งให้ธุรกิจโตไปให้ถูกทางนะ
