Your experience helps researchers, students and founders turn ideas into companies. Four ways in.

Mentor an I-Corps team. Bring your industry experience to researchers testing whether their technology has a market, in UMD's regional and national cohorts.
Mentor teams in the Hub's regional cohorts, drawn from universities across the Mid-Atlantic.
Volunteer as an advisor. Meet one-on-one with current and aspiring entrepreneurs exploring a company idea, and point them to campus and regional resources. Contact mtechventures@umd.edu.
Team your company with University System of Maryland faculty on a product-development project, backed by MIPS matching funds.
