Cohorts

I-Corps cohorts

Each training cohort consists of approximately 24 teams. Each cohort is hosted by an I-Corps Hub or Node.

Until further notice, all I-Corps training sessions will be held virtually. No travel is expected for I-Corps training. Customer discovery interviews may be conducted by phone, video conferencing or in person. To conduct in-person interviews, you will need to follow your university's travel guidance and policies. All times are given in Eastern Time.
