FIRST-EVER OPEN HOUSE
Come see where the next big thing gets built.
Tour the building
Wet and dry labs, private offices, co-working, presentation and conference space, and the amenities in between.
Meet the companies
The founders in residence are commercializing battery chemistry, robotics, clean energy, and more. Ask them anything.
Network
Talk with Mtech Ventures staff, incubator founders, and the people who make College Park's startup ecosystem run. Snacks provided.
Digene, acquired for $1.6 billion. Martek, acquired for $1.1 billion. InventWood. They all grew up in the same building on Technology Drive: the Mtech Ventures incubator, home to Maryland startups since 1985.
We have never opened this building for everyone to see. On August 26, we are. Walk the labs. Meet the founders building in them right now. See where your company could grow.
Building an early-stage technology company? Your venture could thrive here, with high-tech laboratory space, premium offices on campus, hands-on mentorship from people who have guided successful companies before, and the University of Maryland's research firepower right next door. No equity taken. No fees beyond rent.
