Venture Science Doctorate

AMBER Tx Training

Strategy Notes

VSD is a 3-year funded PhD programme, fundamentally misaligned with a pre-seed founder building a venture full-time. Applicant seeks venture funding (€30K–€2.5M), incubators, and accelerators—not doctoral studies. Weak geographic fit: UK is secondary to EU/France priority.

Status History

2026-07-09 OPEN → INELIGIBLE · Programme is a 3-year full-time PhD requiring enrolment and venture creation from scratch within the doctoral structure (Year 1: scope, Year 2: invent, Year 3: spin out). Applicant is an active pre-seed founder with three published preprints, confirmed hypotheses H1–H5, a provisional patent, and running platforms — the VSD assumes participants are starting their research journey, not continuing one. Applicant's stated goal is direct venture/incubator funding (€30K–€2.5M), not doctoral training; programme type is categorically misaligned with stage, goals, and funding needs.
