Harvard Grid Accelerator Funds Six Projects in Science & Engineering for Global Impact
The Harvard Grid Accelerator announced awards to six interdisciplinary projects that have transformative potential in health, climate, and manufacturing.
Harvard faculty are preeminent scholars and prolific inventors. In OTD, we also understand that some academic innovations need a boost to succeed commercially.
OTD’s pioneering technology accelerator programs—the Blavatnik Biomedical Accelerator and the Harvard Grid Accelerator—help bridge the development gap, providing focused funding and resources to validate and de-risk promising technologies for successful partnering.
What ultimately makes it all work? Passionate people.
Our wide network of venture capitalists and entrepreneurs—many of whom are Harvard alumni—give generously of their time and expertise, leading and investing in new startup companies, engaging with labs as Entrepreneurs in Residence or Experts in Residence, serving on our accelerator advisory committees, speaking at OTD events, and making valuable connections throughout Cambridge and Boston.
