DRIVEN Partnership Program
Process: DRIVEN representatives at each partner institution call for applications twice a year (January and June). To learn who your representative is, email info@drivenacceloraterhub.com. Representatives review applications and nominate 3 to DRIVEN.
Nominees: Receive multifaceted and actionable feedback on their business/development plans.
Awardees: On a bi-annual basis, the DRIVEN Hub selects up to 3 teams/ideas to partner with. Partnership spans a 3-month timeframe and includes GAP assessment, action plan formation, connection with DRIVEN resources, in-kind services, and a presentation to the DRIVEN external committee comprised exclusively of investors (representing over $10B in AUM) and buy-side business development leaders (cumulative market cap exceeding $700B). At the conclusion of the program, participants are invited to apply for the Acceleration Fund (see below).
