It runs three funding cycles per year with deadlines on November 5, February 5, and May 5. Applications ask students to describe their idea/solution and team composition. A related opportunity — the Rothberg Catalyzer Prize — offers $25,000 to student-led ventures addressing clinical/medical needs, awarded via the Startup Yale competition. The Build Fund targets early-stage students executing innovation milestones; the Catalyzer Prize is a competition for more mature ventures.
