The University Startups Conference is a unique conference series dedicated exclusively to creating and funding globally-competitive, venture-backable university startups. We bring together universities creating startups with VCs, angel investors, SBIR program managers and Fortune 500 technology scouts funding them. The conference also includes NSF, NIH, NIST, NAVY, DOE, DHS and other government agencies working on improving the Innovation Economy by increasing the quality and quantity of startups coming out of universities.

The National Council of Entrepreneurial Tech Transfer is partnering with the Science and Technology officials at the various Washington Embassies to include the international university startup perspective.
