Lab to LAUNCH 🚀

Ready to launch your startup 👀

Last month I sat in the room at VA Innovation Partnership Corp’s (VIPC’s) Lab-to-Launch Lunch & Learn and watched VA make a very bold move for founders, researchers, and investors 🔥🔥🔥

Lab-to-Launch is a statewide initiative designed to fast-track commercialization for high-growth tech coming out of Virginia’s research universities.

Here’s what you need to know to be dangerous:

1. Virginia Fast-Track License
– Standardized, founder-friendly IP terms
– Moves licensing from 9–12 months down to roughly 30–60 days 👀👀👀👀👀
– No upfront or annual fees for startups 👀👀

2. Up to $50,000 in commercialization funding
You COULD qualify for up to $50K in VIPC funding to cover patent, licensing, and early commercialization work.

3. Real support + visibility
Entrepreneur-in-Residence guidance, digital IP catalogs so industry can actually find your tech, and deeper investor connections across the Commonwealth.

And this part is time-sensitive:
VIPC has 3 virtual “Ask Me Anything” info sessions coming up – December 9, December 11, and January 8, 2026.

If you’re in Virginia and you’ve been sitting on an idea, this might be your sign 🫶🏽

Tap in at VIPC.org → Lab-to-Launch, get in the room, and learn how to move from lab to launch without losing momentum 💫
