TCF…CIF…WTF(unding)? How to prepare a winning application

Every year TEDCO makes dozens of investments in the State’s most promising tech startups – this volume of deal flow makes TEDCO the “go to” seed stage funding source for Maryland entrepreneurs.

You may have heard about TEDCO’s TCF (Technology Commercialization Fund) and CIF (Cybersecurity Investment Fund) Programs and found yourself wondering “What are they?”, “What is TEDCO looking for?”, and “How can I maximize my chance of getting funded? – well…now help is on the way!!

Join us on February 24 for an “entrepreneur only” workshop to learn how you can prepare a powerful application for these two TEDCO flagship funding programs. The first part of the workshop will cover the TCF/CIF process, application requirements and the key points every reviewer is looking for in an application. In the second half, entrepreneurs will have the chance to discuss their specific situations & questions with experienced TEDCO review committee members.

The workshop is free and open to public, but is limited to 40 entrepreneurs. Reserve your spot now!
