Venture Exploration Program with PDA

[Ahmed Alade Tiamiyu]

Dear MIT postdocs,

Are you considering entrepreneurship? Interested in learning more about the path from academia to venture creation? We encourage you to participate in the Venture Exploration Program this upcoming spring semester!
Offered by the MIT Innovation Initiative<https://innovation.mit.edu/about/>, the NSF I-Corps node at MIT<https://icorps.mit.edu/>, and in collaboration with The Engine<https://www.engine.xyz/>, the Venture Exploration Program (VEP) is a virtual program that helps you develop a business model for your research-derived product or service. VEP is the successor to the former Translational Fellows Program (TFP) at MIT.
?
Learn the fundamentals of customer discovery - the process of obtaining valuable, firsthand feedback on ideas for the use of a technology-and business model development. Hear firsthand from MIT tough tech founders who have successfully navigated the path from academia to venture. Explore topics such as technology and market, competition, building a team, intellectual property, investment readiness, and more.

Upon completion of VEP, you will receive certification demonstrating successful completion of the MIT I-Corps program, which may be helpful in future NSF grant requests.
VEP is offered free of charge. All sessions will be hosted via Zoom. Application deadline is January 8, 2021 - learn more and apply here<https://innovation.mit.edu/vep-2/>!
