Many young, North Carolina-based companies often need financing to help get them off the ground or over a hump. This could be capital for financing a prototype, wrapping up a final stage of research, or getting to and growing revenue.

NC IDEA addresses these types of needs by providing traditional venture funding as well as grants and loans to help companies from seed funding and Series A financing through an exit event. We also offer strong, strategic partnerships and alliances to assist entrepreneurs through research phases, business challenges and growth goals.

Our mission is to ensure innovation and success by infusing North Carolina’s technology-based entrepreneurial companies with needed capital and support.
