Updated November 2026. Inside Deep Tech's searchable directory of deep-tech startups and scaleups as of November 2026. Use it to map potential suppliers, technical peers and investment research targets across ten engineering and life-science verticals.

Inside Deep Tech's November 2026 editorial selection considers publicly reported funding and valuation where verified, commercial traction such as deployments, revenue, named customers and contracts, and technical significance. Entries are grouped by category, then editorial prominence; displayed numbers are directory positions, not a Top 161 ranking.

This directory complements the Top 100 Deep Tech companies page, which covers the biggest names, including large AI labs and established businesses. Mega public conglomerates and their internal divisions are excluded here; inclusion is not a claim that every scaleup remains privately held.

161 of 161 companies
Data compiled for editorial reference; funding figures and valuations are approximate and reflect the publicly reported rounds cited. Financial snapshots retain their announcement dates and aren't an assertion of today's valuation. Undisclosed means no independently verified figure is included in this edition, not necessarily that the company has never disclosed funding. Location denotes a disclosed company or program base, not necessarily its registered headquarters. Corporate divisions and acquired specialist brands may appear where technically significant; inclusion doesn't imply independence, investment suitability or commercial readiness.
