With support from a generous UM alum and his family and a $5 million gift, we are excited to launch University of Miami Student Startup Accelerator (USTAAR). USTAAR will support entrepreneurial culture of our students at all levels. The program will provide direct investment and mentoring to students who want to launch startups.

Through a competition, USTAAR will support up to 20 students / teams with $10K initial investment. This will rise up to $100K for 5 successful teams that develop their minimum viable products and are ready for the next step in their product development and commercialization journeys. Apply Today!
