Please join us to learn how the MLSC supports diverse entrepreneurs and early-stage life science companies through MassNextGen and other initiatives.

Awardees of the program will receive a year-long customized package of support, which includes non-dilutive grant funding, lab bench at a sponsoring incubator, and access to a network of seasoned professionals from the life sciences ecosystem helping them to refine their business strategies and effectively raise capital. In addition, awardees will highlight their company to sponsors, awardees, and representatives of venture capital firms at the end of the program year in a “showcase” event to promote relationship building.

A special thank you to our Anchor Platinum Sponsor, Takeda, and all our MassNextGen sponsors, including Johnson & Johnson Innovation, Massachusetts Biomedical Initiatives, ABI-LAB, Berkshire Innovation Center, Cambridge Scientific Labs, Hatch.Bio, InnoVenture Labs, M2D2, Mansfield Bio-Incubator, Portal Innovations, and the UMass Boston Venture Development Center. Together, we are helping to create a diverse, inclusive, and equitable ecosystem.
