2023 President’s Innovation Challenge
“What began as one effort is now a thriving three-lab ecosystem. The Harvard i-lab works with hundreds of student startups each year (a record 576 this fall). We advance seed-stage alumni ventures through our LLX GEO program. And we support high-potential life sciences venture teams through our Pagliuca Harvard Life Lab, which celebrated its fifth anniversary this month.
Over the last decade, 4,700+ founders—from all 13 Harvard schools—have come through our doors. They’ve gone on to raise over $4 billion in capital and, since they represent more than 150 countries, create truly global change. Our teams are transforming dozens of industries and creating meaningful impact that spans the private, public, and nonprofit sectors. I couldn’t be prouder of our innovators—and our staff team and array of experts who work tirelessly in service to them.”
–Matt Segneri, Bruce and Bridgitt Evans Executive Director
