VIC Foundry develops technologies that have a potential substantial impact and commercial promise but have too many unknowns to be able to acquire private equity investment initially. Instead of private equity, VIC Foundry further develops promising technologies by accessing grant funding such as SBIR and STTR. After a technology advances enough to warrant private equity investment, a new company is formed, an initial executive team is placed by VIC, and the VIC Investor Network places a founding investment up to $500,000 into the newly formed company.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-709455c\" data-id=\"709455c\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b12b332 elementor-invisible elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"b12b332\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_animation&quot;:&quot;fadeIn&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/vicfoundry.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/EcoSystem-1024x1024.png\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-3572\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vicfoundry.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/EcoSystem-1024x1024.png 1024w, https:\/\/vicfoundry.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/EcoSystem-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/vicfoundry.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/EcoSystem-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/vicfoundry.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/EcoSystem-768x768.png 768w, https:\/\/vicfoundry.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/EcoSystem-500x500.png 500w, https:\/\/vicfoundry.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/EcoSystem.png 1300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Forging Innovation for Future Investments How the VIC Foundry Works The VIC Foundry is one element of the VIC innovation ecosystem that includes VIC Technology Venture Development, VIC Investor Network and various associated programs such as the VIC Fellows and VIN Partners.
