Overview
Team Venture Forth works on strategies to support teams to advance a specific opportunity acheive commercial success. Resources serving such university-based ventures incubate, accelerate and bootcamps. Seed funding sources and grant-writing resources, as well as pro-active and helpful technology transfer offices support venture teams seeking to gain marketplace traction and spin out of a University setting. Linkages to regional and statewide industry resources provide pathways to growth and scale.
