About this Funding
The Pearce Summer Fellows Program by Underscore VC is a summer startup program for Boston-area students and researchers to build and launch their ideas. This is a dilutive program.
- Runs from June to August
- Offers at least $50K in funding via an uncapped SAFE (equity investment, not a grant)
- Provides workspace, mentorship, and customer introductions
- Open to academic founders at any stage, even just an idea
It’s a fellowship-style program that combines early-stage funding with hands-on support to help founders turn ideas into startups.
