NYU INNOVATION VENTURE FUND

NYU's seed-stage venture capital fund invests exclusively in startups founded by, and/or commercializing technologies and intellectual property developed by current NYU students, faculty, and researchers. The Fund will provide needed capital, contacts with the entrepreneurial and venture communities, and just as important, practical management and marketing expertise to transform NYU ideas and inventions into successful, growing companies. The Fund makes approximately three to four investments per year in partnership with other angel investors and seed/venture capital funds. The Fund will recycle investment returns from the successful sale of portfolio companies back into the University to finance further research and future ventures.
