2020 BioVenture eLab Biomedical Business Plan Challenge – Applications Open!

January 31, 2020



The goal of Weill Cornell Medicine’s Business Plan Challenge is to assist faculty, staff and teams in developing a strong business plan and compelling investor pitches. The program provides one-on-one mentorship from industry mentors and access to resources including regulatory affairs, R&D planning, fundraising, lab spaces, accelerators and legal services.

 

In May, teams present business plans at the final Demo Day in front of judges from industry, venture capital, and an audience of 200+.

 

This is a great opportunity to hone the value proposition for your business with support from industry executives and investors, expand your network with other founders and entrepreneurs, and to create a compelling business plan.
