Venture Lab’s Innovation Fund exists to fund creative and meaningfully innovative ventures from the Penn student community, and, like all Venture Lab programs, is intended to give students an opportunity to learn about entrepreneurship, through their successes and mistakes. Alberto Vitale WG’59, who endowed the Innovation Fund, hopes that it will be “a catalyst to stimulate innovation at the School and to surface the brainpower of its students.”
All funding decisions are made by our Investment Team, which is comprised of current students from across the University of Pennsylvania. We are currently recruiting for new members for our Investment Team, from all Penn schools. The Investment Team is responsible for reviewing applications for funding every month from October 2021 through April 2022. This will require approximately 10-12 hours of reviewing applications on our online system during each month’s 10-14 day review period. The Investment Team will hold twice-monthly meetings where we have lively discussion and make our funding decisions (10 application review meetings, 1 kick-off meeting, and 1 coaching meeting in October).
