The Harvard Innovation Labs today announced the 18 ventures selected for Launch Lab X (LLX), the university innovation center’s global accelerator for Harvard alumni founders.
"Since introducing the first cohort in 2018, the Launch Lab X accelerator has helped hundreds of Harvard alumni entrepreneurs create jobs, change industries, and improve lives through their ventures,” said Jill Kravetz, Bruce and Bridgitt Evans Executive Director of the Harvard Innovation Labs. “Each year, we bring together alumni from around the world who are advancing products and services across every sector imaginable. The breadth and ambition of this year’s cohort is inspiring, and I look forward to seeing how their ventures evolve in the year ahead.”
LLX is an equity-free, virtual accelerator that takes place over eight months. The adaptive, milestone-based program offers ventures several resources, including:
- Personalized Coaching: LLX teams have access to experts on a wide range of topics. Some of these experts may become advisors, and participants receive structured feedback during pitch feedback sessions.
- Virtual Programming: Aside from an in-person orientation to kick off the program, all LLX programming is virtual, making it accessible from anywhere in the world.
- Fundraising Support: In addition to VC connections during programming and pitch sessions, participants are invited to a virtual venture showcase attended by more than 1,000 investors.
- Coworking Space: Although LLX is fully virtual, participants are welcome to work out of the Harvard Innovation Labs and take advantage of its amenities.
- Peer Network: Entrepreneurship can be challenging, but the LLX cohort provides constant support. Founders in the cohort are at similar stages and share invaluable advice and encouragement throughout the journey.
“We’ve designed Launch Lab X to meet founders where they are and help them accelerate their ventures,” said Rym Baouendi, director of alumni engagement at the Harvard Innovation Labs. “From the community and programming, to workshops and our unique ecosystem, we’re offering a wealth of resources that empower founders to learn from both experts and each other, which makes the LLX experience truly unique.”
More than 250 Harvard alumni-led ventures applied for LLX. Admitted founders hail from 12 countries, representing nine Harvard schools. More than 40% of the ventures have a woman founder or co-founder.
