Applications Open: Venture Foundations - A New Program for Hard Tech Founders

Hard tech ventures face a unique set of challenges. Prototyping takes time, validation can be expensive, and decisions around manufacturing, intellectual property, funding, certification, and customer adoption can all shape the path to market.

Venture Foundations: Advance Manufacturing is a five-part workshop program designed to support early-stage founders building physical technology. It’s designed to help founders connect product development with commercial readiness. Through practical workshops, expert perspectives, and peer learning, a cohort of 8 founders will explore how to better understand their customers, identify what needs to be validated next, and make informed decisions as they develop their ventures.

Applications are open until September 23, with rolling admission.
