Duke Innovation and Entrepreneurship is now accepting applications for the Duke Incubation Fund (the "Fund"), which now provides up to $40K per project of seed funding for early-stage technologies and ideas at Duke with potential for commercialization.

The Fund supports novel ideas, applied research, potential products, nascent services, and creative projects that, if successful, will lead to new opportunities in the market. To receive funding, projects must demonstrate a potential path to subsequent financial support, new company formation, licensing, not-for-profit partnering, or other channels to enable translation.

Applications are welcome from all fields of inquiry. At least one member of any team must be employed at Duke in a faculty or staff capacity (including graduate students and postdoctoral researchers). Projects with a high likelihood of commercialization and/or with existing Duke intellectual property or potential to generate new Duke intellectual property are highly encouraged to apply.

For more program information, please view the RFA or contact Andrew Lerner at andrew.lerner@duke.edu.

Apply through April 23 at 5 pm.
