Fisher Innovation Launchpad

Start-Up Challenge Details

Supported through the generous financial gift of Donne and Sue Fisher, the Fisher Innovation Launchpad is a platform designed to encourage University of Wyoming students to launch entrepreneurial and innovative companies. Winners in the Launchpad take their businesses past concept stage and into real-world first article builds and initial sales. While no limit is set for how much money a single winning finalists can receive, historically awards have been between $4,000 and $31,000.

All teams must include a UW student, graduate student, and/or post-doc in a significant role.
