Understanding the
Connecticut Bioscience Innovation Fund

Connecticut Innovations makes equity investments from the $200 million Connecticut Bioscience Innovation Fund to speed commercializable bioscience breakthroughs to market and help healthcare-related companies grow in the state.

Snapshot of Common Characteristics

CI seeks technology-based companies based in Connecticut or willing to move here. We look for innovators with expertise in bioscience. While we’re flexible when evaluating a potential partner, we also look for:

Primary Location

Majority of the company must have a Connecticut presence.

Focus on Innovation

Companies currently developing a technology.

Financial Status

Non-recurring revenue from non-grant sources of less than $2 million.

Affiliates or subsidiaries of larger companies, or those that are controlled by common owners from larger companies, are not eligible for pre-seed funding. Meeting the requirements above does not guarantee funding.
