Establishing a startup was a decision we made in order to enhance the technology transfer from our research group at CEITEC Brno University of Technology into the business world. CactuX aims to make the X-ray CT analysis more straightforward and effective.

“Top 10 Czech start-ups
What is the motivation of the founders to create their own start-up? Above all, the need to implement your own ideas, the opportunity to be your master and the desire to achieve something. In the case of Czech startups, last year and the beginning of this year can be described as a period of convincing investments, large sales abroad and the overall emergence of new projects.
Here we present our Top 10:
