Berkeley Lab’s Cyclotron Road – Fellowships for Entrepreneurial Scientists

Berkeley Lab’s Cyclotron Road provides two-year fellowships for entrepreneurial scientists developing solutions in electronics, energy, and manufacturing and is now recruiting its fifth cohort, with application now open through October 31st.  More information below and at http://www.cyclotronroad.org/.

Participants in the program receive:

  • A two year fellowship, including a cash stipend, health insurance, and travel funds
  • Access to world-class research facilities and expertise at Berkeley Lab and UC Berkeley, along with $100k of project funds and control of IP
  • A program of intensive entrepreneurial training, mentorship, and networking to enable you to build a viable business.

The program’s goal is simple: allow innovators to mature their ideas until they can align with the most suitable commercial partners to take their technology to scale. Since 2015, Cyclotron Road has awarded more than $15 million directly to 41 fellows, who have gone on to generate more than $75 million in early-stage funding to support their projects. Interested applicants are encouraged to register to apply at http://www.cyclotronroad.org/
