The World Needs Scientists Now, More Than Ever
What drives our work
We empower scientists to reinvent the world by bringing their research to market. We believe scientists are key to reinventing our economy to be sustainable, resilient, and equitable. But without the right support and resources, many of them never pursue entrepreneurship to bring their groundbreaking discoveries to market.
We support them at the outset of their entrepreneurial journey by providing personalized expertise, tools, and resources that may otherwise be inaccessible. By doing so, we are an engine for shared prosperity, creating an unprecedented community of technology leaders whose innovations are building a better future for all.
These scientists will change how we power our lives, how we make things, how our buildings work, how we move around the world, and how we use resources to nourish our society. Scientists deserve a fair shot at changing the world. And we give it to them.
Who we are
Founded in 2015, Activate Global Inc. is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization that partners with U.S.-based funders and research institutions to support our fellows. Activate’s entrepreneurial fellowship model originated at Cyclotron Road, a program of Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory and founding Activate partner.
