E-Hub Incubator Tracks
The E-Hub Incubator Tracks are designed to provide teams interested in ideas in a particular domain (a) a community of interest, and (b) targeted support and resources. Each track is designed in collaboration with one or more academic centers and innovation partners. A student team may choose a track or may decide to participate without indicating a specific track. The decision does not influence your chances of securing seed funding. Choosing a track opens the possibility to access the community and additional resources, and signals the judges evaluate your pitch presentations accordingly.
