Innovator Fellowship
NOW OPEN | APPLICATIONS DUE APRIL 9
Become a full team member of your VC host. Learn first-hand how investment decisions are made and what it takes to bring an innovation to market. Build your network, and help make real-world investment decisions. Gain access to mentors.
Transition back to campus where you will continue your work part-time with the VC host and begin to think about how to de-risk your own research innovation.
During your final 6 months, focus is placed on your research. Now, with an understanding of the market, support of your VC network, and access to IIFH resources, we want to help set you on a trajectory that allows you to move your innovation forward and plan for a future of impact and success.
Multiple Innovator Fellowship opportunities are offered throughout the year, with flexible start dates and remote as needed.
