Lab space, seed capital, development services, and mentoring: Everything you need to launch your company!
Here at Mission BioCapital, we love working with entrepreneurs like you. We and our partner life science incubators are constantly developing new ways to provide a launchpad for world-changing science.
As biotech entrepreneurs, you have unique needs: You need lab space fitted with state-of-the-art research equipment; professional support staff who can manage everything from EH&S training to proper handling of biohazard waste; office space for meetings with your team and potential investors; and a vibrant, collaborative space in which to share ideas and expertise with other exciting life science companies.
You also need capital to pay for those critical early experiments, the lawyers, the rent, the insurance. You need leading-edge discovery and development services. You need expertise and advice on what those critical early experiments should be. You need perspective on defining a meaningful roadmap for an early-stage biotech company.
The Platinum Program was designed to meet all these needs! Together with our partners, we aim to find high-potential early-stage biomedical innovations powered by enthusiastic teams and back them for the best possible chance for success.
Our 2024 Platinum Program will award up to six winning startup-ups with:
- A guaranteed lab bench in one of Mission BioCapital’s affiliated incubators located in 13 cities in the U.S. and Europe
- Up to $500,000 of seed capital per awardee
