What a great week interacting with the entrepreneurs, IIRs and University City Science Center staff, a remarkable program! Factor 7 Medical is proud to support the program and being a part of the ecosystem of resources that transitions Founders into CEO's! #gofarther,faster!
This isn’t startup land anymore. This is company building. Congratulations to Cohort 6 of the Capital Readiness Program who began the week as founders and emerged as CEOs. They decelerated, focused, and trusted our process. Hard truths were confronted, stress tests pushed founders to their limits, and vulnerabilities were exposed-- all critical insights necessary to scale a successful business. A big thank you to our Investors-in-Residence who spent the week sharing invaluable expertise and insights to the startups. Their involvement truly sets this program apart, offering startups unparalleled access to the minds of the people writing the checks. We take immense pride in the caliber of people and resources we surround our companies with and greatly appreciate the time our subject matter experts put into these companies.
