UNC fosters innovation through its Entrepreneurship Center, offering resources like the UNC Startup Accelerator and the Carolina Angel Network to help early-stage ventures grow.
- This program provides startups with business support and entrepreneurial fellows with direct experiences translating scientific, technological and social-driven ideas into the market.
- The KickStart Grant-Awards Program helps early-stage companies meet commercial milestones, either on the technical side (prototype development, animal studies) or on the business side (regulatory pathway, market opportunity).
