Building world-changing companies takes a Collective.
We bring together corporates, researchers, investors and mentors to provide the resources and networks that rebels of science need to succeed.
We partner with founders from day zero, providing capital, technical and commercial expertise, and access to our powerful collective. ATUM brings together stakeholders across the ecosystem into our collective: from corporate and government partners to world-class researchers and operators. We drive collaboration that accelerates progress, clears regulatory and commercialisation hurdles, and ultimately helps founders build the the future.
​
Our model goes beyond investment. We get in the trenches to validate technology, shape go-to-market strategies, and navigate the path to scale.
01
Research Institutions
We provide rigorous technical due diligence for differentiated technology and IP. We collaborate with technology transfer officers (TTO), R&D departments and Universities with hands-on venture creation support, and a clear path to commercialization for high-potential IP.
As a deep-tech geek, I know I wanted to build companies based on differentiating tech. With ATUM, I've been able to do that. They have been instrumental in navigating the deep-tech landscape in Singapore and building my deep-tech venture.

Corporate Partners
As a corporate partner, you gain access to co-building opportunities, and our broader research and innovation network. In return, we ask for active engagement in venture-building, pilot opportunities for emerging technologies, and strategic alignment around joint deep-tech investment.
IMI's strategy is to build risk-adjusted ventures that help us look at horizon 2 and 3 opportunities. An important component of this strategy is to build ventures, with long-term sustainable tech differentiation. With ATUM as a partner, we have been able to do just that.

Investors
We offer curated, de-risked deep-tech deal flow, co-investment opportunities, and strategic syndication partnerships.
At Cocoon Capital, we actively invest in early-stage deep-tech and by partnering with ATUM, we've found excellent dealflow for co-investment opportunities.

Founders, Entrepreneurs-in-residence, Advisors, Mentors
Looking for the curious and the courageous. We offer entrepreneurs and founders access to pre-vetted technologies and ideas, initial funding, market access, and a hands-on co-building process. Our scientific council, entrepreneurs-in-residence, and specialist advisors provide deep technical insight, industry expertise, and strategic mentorship to guide founders every step of the way.
​
In return, we look for full commitment to the venture, a willingness to navigate uncertainty, and alignment with our equity structure and approach.
​
It's 2 years ago now that we graduated from the ATUM Venture Building programme and they have given us all the support we wished for and more: capital, network, access to corporates, deep-insights into how to build a deep-tech venture. I could not be more thankful.
