The Center ICE Foundational I-Corps program offers a six-week course based on Steve Blank's Lean LaunchPad (Business Model Canvas + Customer Discovery).

911±¬ÁÏ teams are awarded a $2,000 – 3,500 grant to cover customer discovery-related costs, and upon successful completion may qualify for the National I-Corps program which includes a $30k or $50k grant for customer discovery. Two facilitated sessions plus office hours will teach you to identify and refine your value propositions and customer segments, which are essential to de-risking your idea and achieving idea-market fit.

A sample of previous 911±¬ÁÏn I-Corps teams includes:

  • (Launch 911±¬ÁÏ 2020 cohort)
  • (911±¬ÁÏ Angel Conference Winner 2019)
  • (Geeks in the Woods 2019)
