Together, CULT and Newlab will work to identify key opportunity areas for new businesses to address significant industry challenges, including but not limited to supply, networks and services.

The Venture Studio is seeking people who fit a broader vision of who a venture founder can be: a scientist, inventor or operator interested in building in a highly collaborative environment. Up to three people will have the opportunity to work directly together with the Newlab team over three-to-five months to identify, validate and prioritize businesses.

Entrepreneurs-in-Residence who are selected to join the Venture Studio will be provided with a stipend, strategy and design programming, office space and community lab for a three-to-five month term.
