LAUNCH: The University of California's Startup Accelerator
LAUNCH is a startup accelerator and competition designed to transform early-stage startups into fundable companies. In the fall, our judges select the 25-30 hottest startups in the UC system. Teams are paired with serial-entrepreneur mentors and led through a rigorous curriculum by the acclaimed UC Berkeley Faculty, including professors from the Haas School of Business. The three-month-long accelerator phase is designed to help UC startups grow quickly. We help companies build out their teams, protect IP, connect with industry experts, get minimum viable products into customers’ hands, prove their scalable business model, pitch to investors, and become fundable.
