@jakmarcin@mstdn.science WoW thanks!
5.5 million Euros does not seem like much.
Tried finding some Spanish news article and can't find what it covers.
10 -20 scientists or engineers over 5 years?

In December it was 2.5 million over 4 years. Was this different pot of money?

Looking at last week government news:
500 million to 2030 as part of Deeptech's 8,000 Million?

So this money is for death valley phase. Later investors. 👍
