The current economic landscape may look different from 2019, but one factor that remains unchanged is that startups need hands-on business support with dedicated mentors to fuel their strategy and growth. That's exactly why we're launching a May/June cohort that is intentionally designed to provide science and technology startups with the needed mentorship to survive the economic fallout of COVID-19.
In our program, entrepreneurs learn valuable skills on how to access capital, acquire customers, build and retain talented teams, accelerate top line revenue growth and plan their exit. If you're a founder or CEO turning a startup into a high-growth business or advancing your technology to commercialization this is the program you've been looking for.
The Innosphere Ventures program focuses on ensuring companies are investor-ready, connecting entrepreneurs with experienced advisors, making introductions to corporate partners, exit planning, accelerating top line revenue growth, and so much more!
While the Innosphere Ventures incubator program does not take equity in companies, the Innosphere Fund evaluates all companies to be considered for seed stage investments of up to $150,000 at the beginning of the company’s Innosphere engagement.
Typically, Innosphere's next cohort doesn't begin until the Fall, but we're excited to offer this additional 2020 cohort to support the rising number of entrepreneurs who will be seeking guidance on launching their business, raising money, or commercializing their products during and after the COVID-19 crisis.
Back in the 2008 recession, Innosphere supported many individuals who were pursuing entrepreneurship as their economic path forward. And we're proud to say that we're still here today -- to support entrepreneurs building potential high-growth companies.
