Launch your company this summer!
The Connecticut Center for Entrepreneurship and Innovation has EXTENDED the application deadline for this year's Summer Fellowship Program! Summer Fellowship is UConn’s startup accelerator program and is an immersive entrepreneurial experience open to anyone affiliated with UConn (students, faculty, staff and alumni).
The program takes place June through August and startup teams spend 3 days a week over 8 weeks taking a deep dive into their business with the support of mentors, industry mentors, and experienced entrepreneurs. These sessions help educate program participants on how to define their business, build their brand, and launch their venture, all while building a community with the other entrepreneurs participating in the program.
Summer Fellowship is CCEI’s flagship program and has prepared startups to launch their company, generate revenue, raise funding (grants, investments, etc.), and be accepted into next step opportunities such as incubators and accelerator programs.
Each team will receive $15,000 in non diluted funding for their venture.
