Chandler Endeavor Venture Innovation Incubator

About

The Incubator at Chandler Endeavor is focused on advancing the development of early-stage and growth-stage ventures by providing access to highly tailored support and resources, igniting innovation.

Many incubators require entrepreneurs to apply, and they may or may not be selected to join a cohort of other startups. The Chandler Endeavor Venture Innovation Incubator invites any entrepreneur in the community to join simply by registering. 

ASU’s J. Orin Edson Entrepreneurship + Innovation Institute, in partnership with the City of Chandler, invites you to be part of our innovation community.

With a new way to nurture an innovation ecosystem and support the advancement of local ventures, you can expect to unlock impactful opportunities and make valuable connections! 

Participation

To build a truly inclusive incubation environment, there is no application or complex selection process to participate. 

Founders who register with the Incubator at Chandler Endeavor will be grouped into cohorts for collaboration and have a six-month timeline to help you stay on track.

Innovation thrives when engagement is high, and barriers are removed which is why there are little to no mandatory event participation requirements. 

With an open invitation to the community, you can join anytime. Grab your spot and get ready to scale up your venture. Get started today!

Testimonials

What entrepreneurs had to say about Chandler Endeavor Venture Innovation Incubator:

I came to a networking event here and I got some good connections. Whenever I visit these spaces, I see people working and it’s great because a lot of small businesses don’t have an office, so if they need to have meetings or need an area to cut out distractions, it’s so helpful.”
