MIT Startup Exchange actively promotes collaboration and partnerships between MIT-connected startups and industry members of MIT’s ILP.

“STEX25 is attracting a lot of new startups which opens doors for new collaborations, new partnerships, and new visits to other markets,” said Catarina Madeira, Director of MIT Startup Exchange. “MIT-connected startups”, are based on MIT licensed technology, are founded by MIT faculty, staff, or alumni, or are actively supported by other MIT affiliated groups such as The Engine.

“The new STEX25 cohort includes startups from various fields, including agriculture, biotech, real estate, and defense, to name a few,” said John Roberts, Interim Executive Director of the MIT Industrial Liaison Program.  “Despite their diverse backgrounds, these startups can be characterized as ‘technology startups’, and all are determined to disrupt the norm or facilitate significant transformations across various industries.”
