VentureWell E-Team program is a great place for students who are apart of the VentureWell community to obtain funding for their start-up. Venture well has pretty broad guidelines when deciding what types of E-Teamss to fund, as long as it is in the technology field, you will be able to apply.
== Mission ==
''“VentureWell’s purpose is to create opportunities that help innovators advance early-stage ideas that will benefit society.”''
== E-Teams ==
VentureWell defines an E-Team as a “multidisciplinary group of students, faculty, and industry mentors working together to bring a technology-based invention (product or service) to market”
The amount of members of your E-Team is up to you, the innovator. But they ask to keep the teams to no more than 6 because the “To many cooks in the kitchen” saying comes into affect.
== Stages of Funding ==
=== Stage 1 ===
Based on how far along your start-up is, teams will be accepted for Stage 3 of funding. In this stage teams will receive training on sector specific partnerships and investment readiness training. Only 10 teams will be picked for Stage 3.
