About this event
Join us to explore two immersive opportunities to accelerate the commercialization of technology developed by faculty, postdocs, PhD candidates, and researchers at NYU. This three-part program offers essential training, mentorship, and more than $100,000 in grant funding to support the creation of scalable deeptech ventures. RSVP to learn more.
About NSF I-Corps: NSF I-Corps (pronounced "eye-core") is an accelerator program created by the NSF to help translate scientific and engineering discoveries into commercial ventures. Participating teams receive a $50,000 grant and gain real-world, hands-on, immersive learning about what it takes to successfully transfer knowledge into products and processes that benefit society. The NSF runs at least three cohorts a quarter.
About the NYU Tech Venture Program: The NYU Entrepreneurial Institute launched the Tech Venture Program (TVP) to fund and support research commercialization by teams of NYU faculty, PhD students, postdocs, and researchers. The TVP is a three-part program, of which NSF I-Corps program is an essential part. Teams can establish eligibility for NSF I-Corps and begin to explore the commercial potential of their ventures through participation in the Tech Venture Workshop (TVW). Upon the successful completion of NSF I-Corps, teams will be invited to apply to the Tech Venture Accelerator. By participating in all three phases, teams are eligible to receive $100,000 in grant funding.
RSVP for a virtual info session today to learn about how to participate in the TVP and NSF I-Corps from Frank Rimalovski, executive director of the NYU Entrepreneurial Institute, and an NSF I-Corps instructor. Zoom links will be sent to those who RSVP.
