AcoustoFab awarded Women TechEU grant

AcoustoFab is delighted to announce that Shubhi Bansal, our CCO and co-founder, has been selected as one of this year’s Women TechEU (2024–2025) winners. The programme supports women-led deep-tech start-ups across Europe with a €75,000 non-dilutive grant funded by the EU, together with a tailored six-month business development and mentoring scheme .

This highly competitive EU initiative recognises 40 trailblazing founders per call who are shaping the future of European deep tech. The support is designed to accelerate the growth of early-stage, women-led companies and prepare them for the next stages of scale-up and investment.

For AcoustoFab, this award represents a strong validation of our mission to bring contactless acoustic manipulation into real-world automation — from lab automation to agritech and advanced manufacturing. Shubhi’s leadership in our multi-material, omnidirectional acoustic 3D printing research and platform development was central to this achievement.

We look forward to engaging with the Women TechEU network, mentors, and partners as we continue to advance the capabilities and impact of acoustic levitation technologies.

About Women TechEU: The programme supports women founders leading deep-tech start-ups across Europe, combining non-dilutive finance with mentorship, investor outreach, and business development services .

We extend our congratulations to all this year’s winners.

The 40 winners from Women TechEU Call #4 were announced on the 19th of November 2025.
