LACI offers Industry Partners the opportunity to participate in a more focused manner through events and special programs. Examples include:
Event Sponsorship
LACI holds events periodically that attract cleantech and business community. Industry Partners can chose to participate at three levels:
Program Naming Sponsorships
Sponsoring LACI programs is perhaps the best way of engaging our portfolio companies as all of these programs are aimed at helping our entrepreneurs in a specific subject. In addition to being very helpful to our entrepreneurs, these programs are excellent ways of building a lasting relationship with the entrepreneurs. Example naming opportunities include:
- CEO Coaching Program (mentorship)
- Investment Preparation Program (mentorship)
- CEO Roundtable Program (mentorship)
- University Technology Commercialization Program
Special Program Sponsorships
LACI has planned a number of projects that are currently beyond our fiscal reach and we are seeking the help of our Industry Partners with through money or in-kind help:
- E.G. – LACI Crowd-Sourcing Tool: This project involves building LACI’s intranet in order to make it easy for LACI staff and advisors to review/comment portfolio company applicants.
- LACI EV Charging Station: The installation of EV charging stations in our temporary and permanent facilities.
- Greening LACI: This project encompasses all the programs that will make LACI’s temporary and permanent facilities LEED certified.
