For alumni and students
Take your business to the next level with support from Boston College alumni
Whether you’re fundraising, looking for feedback, or simply expanding your network, we are here to help.
Accelerator
Since 2014, SSC Venture Partners has run a summer accelerator for Boston College startups. Alumni companies have secured places in world-class programs like Techstars, raised multiple fundraising rounds, and reached acquisitions.
Founders who’ve completed the accelerator consistently refer to their gains in knowledge, mentorship, and connections (plus the motivating camaraderie produce by an incredibly energizing atmosphere surrounded by fellow founders!).
SSC Venture Partners is looking for founders who demonstrate initiative, adaptability, resilience, and self-awareness. Please note that applications are highly competitive with just 3-5 companies selected per summer.
Venture fund
SSC Venture Partners invests in startups that have at least one founder affiliated with Boston College. This includes companies founded by BC alumni as well as current students.
We are industry agnostic, investing in early-stage rounds (pre-seed through series A). We seek teams with diverse makeups and some kind of progress (e.g. a product live with a handful of customers).
If you’re not yet fundraising but plan to in the future, we’d still love to meet you!
