Select investors who provide capital for startups will have access to a program that provides a first look at companies commercializing technologies developed at Purdue University. The Purdue Research Foundation has established the P3 Alliance – Purdue, People, Performance – as an angel investment network that provides investment information and connects individuals to firms or technologies in which they may invest. For a $500 annual membership fee, participants in the P3 Alliance will receive an online subscription to the network’s web site as well as invitations to three or four annual events featuring company presentations, access to documentation from firms seeking angel-level investments, and the ability to interact online with network participants and management. “The P3 Alliance will provide the necessary capital to commercialize innovative products and processes that are discovered in Purdue laboratories, and Purdue researchers will be able to deliver their discoveries to the marketplace on a much faster schedule,” says Joseph B. Hornett, senior vice president, treasurer, and COO of the Purdue Research Foundation. Prospective members are invited to apply online here.
