Our team has been in Vilnius talking to European Deeptech Founders about scaling into North America through Ontario.

Yesterday we co-hosted a roundtable with the Embassy of Canada of Canada and Startup Lithuania () where Hon. Victor Fedeli (), Ontario’s Minister of Economic Development, Job Creation and Trade, and TBDC Chairman Vikram Khurana led the conversation, alongside post-revenue founders building in healthtech, defence, AI, quantum, and more. They discussed about the North American deep tech market, why Ontario is the smartest first step in, and the cost and timeline of getting here.

Earlier today, Vikram joined the EBAN - European Business Angel Network Congress 2026 () panel on Transatlantic Partnerships: Connecting Canadian and European Ecosystems, in front of angels, BANs and VCs from 45+ countries. TBDC also co-hosted a second roundtable with the Embassy of Canada and Hon. Victor Fedeli, for European founders ready to make their North American entry impactful.

We appreciate Startup Lithuania, EBAN, and the Embassy of Canada for the partnership.

Born in gaming. Built for modern desk warriors.

Founder Michal Noga saw a problem — digital natives chasing energy and focus through quick fixes or even prescription stimulants. So he created Madmonq: smart, science-backed supplements that actually work.

What started in esports is now helping thousands stay sharp at work and beyond — and through TBDC’s Horizon Program, Madmonq is expanding into North America.

Watch their full interview to learn more about their journey. Link in bio.
