This summer, hundreds of students from every Harvard school will focus on turning their startup ideas into realities as part of the 2018 Summer Venture Incubation Program, a 10-week long acceleration program at the Harvard Innovation Labs.
The 72 teams in total, Harvard announced on Tuesday, represent a broad diversity of industries: 21% are focused on social impact, cultural entrepreneurship or education; 24% on consumer products or services; 26% on health and sciences; and 29% on enterprise or high tech.
