Bridging the GAP Program: Fueling Innovation from Discovery to Market

 In today’s fast-paced innovation landscape, moving promising ideas from discovery to commercialization requires both vision and resources. Many universities, research institutions, and early-stage ventures find themselves facing a “gap” — a point where initial funding runs out before the idea is fully ready to attract private investors or commercial partners. This is where the Bridging the GAP Program by Innovosource steps in, addressing a critical need for financial support, mentorship, and industry partnerships.

What is the Bridging the GAP Program?

The Bridging the GAP Program empowers institutions and innovators by providing the funding, insights, and connections needed to overcome commercialization barriers. Through a community-centered approach, Innovosource collaborates with universities, investors, and industry experts to accelerate the path from breakthrough ideas to impactful solutions. By bridging this gap, we aim to help ideas gain traction, reach market readiness, and ultimately make a difference.
