As Your Technology Company Grows, the UMass Fund May Be Willing to Invest.
The UMass Fund invests in new companies based on inventions or software made in the course of UMass research. It is managed by the Office of Technology Commercialization and Ventures (OTCV) in the Office of the President. Investments can be made solely, or together with investments by a qualified venture capital firm or angel investor. Investments are limited to $500,000, and are usually made in several installments based on the company reaching incremental product development goals. More information can be found here: UMass Fund.
