THE PATTERN
Six to eight founders. Three times a year. Since 2021.
Every cohort ends the same way: founders pitching real businesses to real investors at Pitch Night. Along the way they log mentor sessions — more than 650 so far — ship products (32 launched), and file patents (18 and counting).
“It’s been, I think, life-changing for a number of folks,” says executive director Vin Fusca. The program now runs from Springfield to Randolph, with NASA technology-transfer opportunities in the mix.
