  **Deep tech** carries _scientific risk_ — trying to make something happen that
  has never happened before [^a8fc1da7@520]. In Packy McCormick's framing, it
  sits a stage _before_ **techno-industrial** companies: in deep tech, the

## Definition

**Deep tech** carries _scientific risk_ — trying to make something happen that has never happened before [^a8fc1da7@520]. In Packy McCormick's framing, it sits a stage _before_ **techno-industrial** companies: in deep tech, the science itself is still unproven, whereas techno-industrial companies integrate already-invented science into products with huge existing demand, delivered better, cheaper, and at higher margins [^a8fc1da7@520].
