The Alaska Foundational Innovation Corps program, or I-Corps, is seeking new participants who could benefit from a $2,500 travel grant to conduct market research for their idea.

Ideas can be in the very early stages; often this is better. Ideas with a technical or technology-enabled component are preferred, but all proposals are welcome. Every applicant receives a free entrepreneurial consulting call with the University of Alaska's entrepreneur-in-residence and will be offered access to further resources.

Grants are awarded year-round on a first-come, first-served basis to about 20 teams a year. Priority is given to University of Alaska individuals or teams, but are open to anyone in Alaska.

Please send an email asking to "Learn more about I-Corps" to centerice@alaska.edu.
