NCIIA is pleased to announce a NEW E-Team Program, starting in fall 2012. The program provides early-stage support and funding of up to $75,000 for young entrepreneurs working on market-based technology inventions.
Since 1995, our E-Team grants have been funding collegiate student/faculty teams in moving ideas out of the lab and classroom and into the marketplace. The 2012-13 E-Team Program enhances this opportunity by providing expert entrepreneurial and venture coaching, experiential workshops, and a potential investment opportunity to help realize the commerical success of the technology inventions and innovations that come through our organization.
NCIIA 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 "E" stands for entrepreneurship.
