About this event

USF has the inventions. We’re looking for the founders.

The University of South Florida is home to over 600+ cutting-edge technologies spanning AI, biotech, medtech, software, engineering, and more — but many of these high-potential innovations are sitting idle, waiting for the right person to step in and drive them forward.

This event is your chance to become that person.

We’re actively recruiting founder-operators, CEOs, and entrepreneurial leaders to take the reins on real technologies that have already been vetted internally for commercial potential. These are not half-baked ideas — they’re real inventions with real IP, developed in USF labs and ready for someone to build around.

At this session, we’ll:

Showcase a curated selection of top technologies in:

- Medical devices
- AI/data science
- Biotech and diagnostics
- Software and engineering
- Advanced materials and clean energy

Walk through the full suite of resources exclusively available to startup founders, including:

- Co-working and lab space
- Grant writing and funding support
- Direct access to translational research grants (state and federal)
- Connections to mentors, talent, and legal support

We’re looking to form at least 4 new startups by June 30. Will one of them be yours?
