Reason # 8 - You need to leverage talent

Another reason why the Venture Development Center is for you:

All start ups have too much to do, in too little time, without enough resources. Your workforce is typically very expensive, however with limited resources, you often are required to use your high priced talent to accomplish everything.

Our student interns provide great value in database entry, database scrubbing, and data verification; event and lead generation; market research; scripted cold calling for webinar, seminar, and event attendance; collection and analysis of data to determine effectiveness or outcomes; lab tests on blood, tissue and body fluids; first level hardware and software support; scripting and code development; accounting assistance and business modeling. They are smart, hungry, loyal, and work hard for everything they achieve.

Our faculty comprise an outstanding translational research community in human development, biological systems, computational science and environmental monitoring, and can solve technical problems, engage in joint development and verify results.

The cultural diversity of UMass Boston's research community and its distinction as one of the most productive of small research universities adds to the robustness of your solutions.
