Entrepreneurial Partnership Program

The BNSL’s Entrepreneurial Partnership Program (EPP) supports aspiring inventors and entrepreneurs as they develop their technological concepts into successful start-ups and thriving small businesses. The EPP cultivates clients through the entire process from idea validation, technology development and commercialization, business formation, financing, and eventual successful exit strategy.  We work with each client individually to create a development plan specifically tailored to their unique needs.

As a EPP member, the client leverages the host of BNSL services as well as the vast network of BNSL partners and service providers. The BNSL offers services  to clients including but not limited to: business, incubation/acceleration, specialized facilities & flex space, product/technology development, business plan review & market analysis, business development consulting, intellectual property assessment, technology maturation & commercialization, seed funding, access to financing vehicles, access to strategic partners, and advanced training & certifications.

Contact Dr. Alberto Correa for details on becoming a member.
