🎉 Breaking News! 🎉 The #ForwardMemberships program offers various membership types tailored to startups at different stages, from #fundraising and grant writing to de-risking #technologies. A challenge often faced by #biohealth #startup companies is the need to gather scientific data in a laboratory with extensive infrastructure and expensive equipment; a Forward Membership for a lab bench will provide immediate access to these resources in the co-working lab. For other startups, a #ForwardMembership for the office offers a collaborative environment for grant-writing support and networking opportunities. ✨ Eligible #startups selected will receive a membership for 12 months that provides access to Forward BIOLABS’ fully equipped co-working #laboratory and/or office options, along with shared resources and a vibrant community. "The resources provided by a Forward Membership will enable entrepreneurs to advance their technologies and become a part of our startup community, all while planning for the next phase of their company’s growth,” said Jessica Martin Eckerly, co-founder and CEO at Forward BIOLABS. “Wisconsin has been recognized as a national Tech Hub because of our burgeoning Biohealth industry. Forward Memberships will allow the next generation of personalized medicine companies to join our innovative co-working lab space, located in the heart of the Wisconsin Biohealth Tech Hub region.” Wisconsin Economic Development Corporation (WEDC) is providing Forward BIOLABS with a nearly 💰 $200,000 #Entrepreneurship Partner Grant (#EPG) aimed at supporting organizations that provide technical assistance and other support to #entrepreneurs. “#WEDC is proud to partner with Forward BIOLABS because they play such a vital role in helping startups take those critical first steps from concept to reality,” said Missy Hughes, WEDC secretary and CEO. “Their Forward Memberships will provide valuable resources and opportunities to Biohealth innovators, particularly nontraditional founders, reflecting our overall commitment to growing our regional Biohealth Tech Hub." ➡ We encourage you to share this exciting announcement on social media and within your networks!
