Plasma at UC Davis

UC PLASMA™ is an accelerator program designed to help ventures define and build their initial products, identify promising customer segments, and secure resources, including capital and employees. UC PLASMA™ supports early-stage, growth-driven companies through education, mentorship, and financing in a cohort-based setting. We provide a small amount of seed capital, working spaces, and a plethora of networking opportunities. Startups will be given the chance to meet peer ventures and mentors, who might be successful entrepreneurs, program graduates, venture capitalists, angel investors, or even corporate executives. Finally, our program ends with a grand event, a “Demo Day” where ventures pitch to a large audience of qualified investors for a top prize of $5,000.
