The program intends to create grant-based funding opportunities for student teams in future years. To date, we have mentored 3 cohorts of student teams for a total of 9 teams through curricular years, which start in August and end in May. AxisMED has partnered with organizations associated with the University of Illinois to promote education in the biotechnology space alongside existing entrepreneurship programs. To date, all involvement of the leadership of AxisMED has been on a volunteer basis. We received our first grant recently, and aim to divide this grant into small grants for our teams in the next year's cohort. AxisMED has supported a total of 9 teams in the early-stage entrepreneurship process. The annual program began by recruiting 6 team leaders in August of 2022. The team leaders cohort narrowed to 4 who stayed engaged with the program, and these team leaders recruited several team members, for team sizes of 4-7 members. Each of these teams found a challenge in the medical field worth pursuing a new solution to, and began research. The teams have engaged in 4 design reviews so far, and have been allocated $125 each in funding to support presentations that they will conduct later this Spring. The leadership team all works on a volunteer basis, providing education to the students who are learning about entrepreneurship in a hands-on way. In previous years, teams have raised tens of thousands in funding after completing our program, and have shown that our program allows for students to learn and engage in medical entrepreneurship in a competitive level to their peers in other areas after they've completed our program. 96 0 0 Alexander Smith President 10 0 0 0 Ariana Barreau Treasurer 5 0 0 0 Alexander Teague Secretary 5 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 IL AxisMED Alexander Smith 612 W Clark St Champaign IL 61820 3142559112 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 NONE NONE 1 X 0 0 600 2800 0 3400 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 600 2800 0 3400 3400 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 3400 X
