Learn about the impact your research or innovation could have in solving real-world problems by attending our Novus I-Corps Program at Seton Hall University, a half-day introduction to I-Corps, co-sponsored by the Northeast I-Corps Hub!

The Novus I-Corps @ Seton Hall University program provides an opportunity for individuals and teams with innovations to:

  1. Understand how Customer Discovery drives innovation (and gets you out of the building!)
  2. Learn tips for success from an I-Corps alumni Panel sharing their experience
  3. (Optional) Network with others to form teams

Who Should Attend (Individuals and teams from Seton Hall University campus are invited:)

  • Seton Hall faculty, postdoctoral researchers, graduate students, and/or undergraduates.
  • Individuals who want to learn how innovation happens at Seton Hall University and potentially join a team
  • Student Organization / Program leaders who want to learn more about how I-Corps can benefit their members

Benefits

  • TRAINING: Three-hour training introducing the I-Corps Lean LaunchPad approach to evaluating technologies through customer-discovery research, focused on identifying the technology’s potential for development in a startup or other venture.
  • NETWORKING: Build relationships with local I-Corps program leaders to get guidance and support. Individuals can form teams to be eligible to apply for the Regional I-Corps program.
  • PREPARATION: Attendees will be prepared to begin a journey of Customer Discovery with their own team or with a team they newly created.
  • FOLLOW-ON OPPORTUNITIES: Attendees can be fast-tracked to the 4-week Regional I-Corps Program ($1,500 NSF grant to do Customer Discovery). Followed by guidance to receive follow-up funding up to $50,000 and $305,000.
