InnovateTech Ventures is a venture creation firm. We build high-potential startups primarily based on patented technology developed at universities. In selected cases we provide consulting and management services to established tech companies seeking a path to exit.
Universities’ innovations hold untapped startup potential, but most universities don’t have access to a network that can bring together a business model, seed funding and an experienced management team. InnovateTech provides that access, transforming disruptive university innovations into high-potential startups.
We also publish Startup.Directory, an online database of more than 2,500 vetted high-tech startups from 300+ research institutions. Investors, entrepreneurs, corporate executives and university tech transfer professionals use Startup.Directory to identify investment and acquisition targets, and for competitive and industry monitoring.
Gerard Eldering, founder and president of InnovateTech Ventures, is an experienced entrepreneur and nationally recognized authority on technology transfer venture creation.
The Innovation Factory creates unique, pragmatic, and outstanding consumer products across industries, including serious tools for rescue and survival. Our patented products are quality crafted, primarily in the USA.
Whether it's a natural disaster, getting lost in the woods, or nuclear Armageddon, there are good reasons to fear for ourselves and our loved ones. This has led to a huge interest in our premium products, including the LifeSaber (which has raised over $200,000 on Kickstarter & Indiegogo), Trucker's Friend, Handy Rescue Tool, Off Grid Axe, and Survival Companion.
Our tools have been seen in Time, Fortune, Maxim, Uncrate, Popular Mechanics, and The Huffington Post. We were also featured on All American Makers (Discovery/Science Channel).
We are always looking for new tool ideas and would welcome submissions at our website.
