UMass Lowell's New Venture Development provides a path for university-owned innovation to become a startup. The New Venture Development is a mix of university resources and equity investment designed to provide a path to, and facilitate more, startup activity at UMass Lowell. The UMass Lowell River Hawk New Venture Fund is a model for university cultivation of start-up activity through early venture-style support. To address gap financing, NVD established and actively manages a $500k seed fund. As syndication is vital to secure adequate funding for our spin outs, NVD maintains strong ties to the regional angel network and regularly interact with investors from HubAngels, Mass Medical Angels, Golden Seeds and eCoast Angels. The River Hawk Fund is a member of the Angel Capital Association and participates in the ACA New England Leadership group. Tech Venture Faculty (TVF) program is a six session technology commercialization series designed to educate faculty in technology commercialization and business fundamentals.
