B-Lab 2022
B-Lab is an intensive 8-week accelerator program that supports student entrepreneurs developing high-impact ventures. We are welcoming 13 ventures that address unmet needs in a wide range of market sectors: improving medication adherence, a platform aimed at simplifying the client-lawyer matching process, e-commerce for handmade beauty products, and many others.
The venture founders from Brown University and RISD bring diverse perspectives, strengths, and interests to the cohort. They are bound together by their passion for creating meaningful solutions to important challenges in exciting markets, and they represent some of the most advanced ventures in the Brown entrepreneurial ecosystem. Learn more about the program and its impact on our students through this short video!
