Women Innovators from Yale University Dolphin Tank

Yale OCR’s AmplifyHERscience program, is inviting applications for a “shark tank” style event in which women entrepreneurs will pitch their startup ideas to business professionals.

In this case, co-organizers are calling it the Women Innovators from Yale University Dolphin Tank, a “friendly-feedback” session in which participants will receive constructive advice and practical insights following 3 to 5 minute pitches.

Applications are being accepted from Yale women innovators who have a startup or a concept for a startup based on innovative technology out of Yale. While faculty members are strongly encouraged to apply, consideration will also be given to Yale postdoctoral associates, graduate students, and Yale research staff.

Presenters must be women. Applications can be submitted here. Submissions are due by midnight Sept. 9.

All attendees are welcome regardless of affiliation, industry, or gender. RSVP to support the women innovators from Yale who will be presenting their breakthrough concepts and technologies.
