EvoNexus incubates early-stage technology startups

Incubation Program for early-stage technology startups

Startups receive support with fundraising, corporate connections, mentorship, long term incubation, and more, for only 1% common equity upon admission compared to other incubators that take up to 7% equity for 3 month programs.

Benefits of Incubation

Our 2-year program combined with our individualized milestone-based structure and 1 on 1 mentoring fosters a path from post-ideation to minimum viable product and long-term sustainability.
