Innosphere incubator admits 12 new startups
FORT COLLINS – Science and technology startup incubator Innosphere announced on Thursday that it has admitted its largest group to date, with 12 new client companies joining the program.
All but one of those startups are based in Northern Colorado or the Boulder Valley.
Fort Collins-based Innosphere is a nonprofit organization that works with startups for two years, helping them with things like launching their companies, crafting business models, building teams and raising capital. The organization operates out of three locations in Fort Collins, as well as the National Renewable Energy Laboratory in Golden. A Denver location opened in June.
Innosphere admits new client companies three times per year. The new group included a specific focus on startups looking to commercialize technology to improve efficiency and reduce environmental impacts in the oil and gas industry, with four of the 12 companies fitting that mold.
