Wonderwoman / Superman: scouting and writing European projects

About us

A major technological revolution is underway in biotechnology, accelerating medicine like never before.

Microfluidics is one of its cornerstones.

Our mission is to accelerate the biotech revolution as fast as we can, in every way we can, through microfluidics.

Our company

The Microfluidics Innovation Center was founded by three researcher-entrepreneurs in 2011 as a business unit of the Elvesys group. We run collaborative research to build deeptech companies in Europe.

We develop microfluidic prototypes within European consortia to solve researchers’ problems. In parallel, we test market appetite for these prototypes and turn them into products. Once the business model is set and the funding plan validated, we license the technology or spin off a new deeptech company.

We’ve already created 10 innovative companies that today make up the Microfluidic Valley. In short, we’re both an industrial research lab and a startup incubator.

In 2023, we chose to become independent so we could fully tap our innovative and entrepreneurial potential. And to protect our freedom to innovate and carry out our missions on our own terms, we decided to take on no investors and stay a tribe.

Our culture

No routine here: our job is to leave the beaten path. We’re doers! We always look to innovate in a way no one else would. We have oceans to cross to fulfil our mission, and we stay together to weather the storms!

As a microfluidics and valorisation partner within European consortia, MIC submits several dozen projects a year. Your role: strengthen the proposal with MIC’s microfluidic technologies and sharpen the project’s valorisation strategy.

Here’s your role:

• You handle the writing of European proposals quickly and efficiently, with funding as the goal
• You work across a wide range of scientific fields
• You define projects directly with the CEO, and discuss them with partners over video calls and email
• You reply fast to our outreach emails to researchers: 24 hours is a lot, 48 hours is an eternity

Your profile in 6 points:

• You hold a PhD and/or a Master’s in science
• You're skilled at prompt engineering and AI tools to go further, faster, right by our side
• You have a solid scientific background and genuine technological curiosity
• You think in terms of market and valorisation
• You’re action-driven, and you like stringing actions together all the way to success
• Your English is flawless, both written and spoken

➔ At MIC, we like: people of action, creative minds, self-starters, the curious, people who are demanding of themselves but take care of those around them. Those who do more than they talk, those who want an intense life full of contrasts. Those who bring croissants!
