The President’s Innovation Challenge is more than a startup competition. It’s a global call for Harvard students and select alumni entrepreneurs to imagine new solutions to the world’s most pressing problems.

The Harvard Innovation Labs invites student founders from all 13 Harvard schools to apply by December 5 for a chance to win a share of $515,000 in funding for their ventures, thanks to the Bertarelli Foundation, with robust support from us along the way.

As part of the PIC journey, you’ll get personalized advising, expert feedback from our judges, pitch coaching, and automatic enrollment in spring 2025 i-lab membership. We encourage student founders from all backgrounds and across all industries to apply.

Redefine what’s possible for your venture — and yourself — by taking on this year’s President’s Innovation Challenge.
