If you are attending a conference for ecosystem discovery and interviews you are still expected to participate in the weekly sessions. We allow excused absences for family and medical emergencies.

If you need a consultation to help in identifying your team members and/or you would like assistance finding an industry mentor, please reach out and we can set up a meeting.

Based on feedback from prior I-Corps participants, we expect that you will find the experience invaluable in the success of your project. We truly appreciate your efforts. See you next week!
