Beck Venture Center
About Beck Venture Center
Beck Venture Center, spanning 31,000 square feet, is a flexible space for emerging companies, whether they are Mines affiliated startups or local businesses. Offering options from coworking spaces to private offices, Beck serves as a dynamic hub where entrepreneurs, investors, mentors, companies and students converge to foster innovation.
Beck provides a range of educational and networking events to enrich the Entrepreneur and Innovation Ecosystem at Mines. Through the center, founders benefit from a holistic support system grounded in four key pillars: Training, Industry Partnerships, Events and a Collaborative Community. This support is complemented by funding opportunities via grants and assistance in preparing for investment capital endeavors. Together, these elements create an environment where entrepreneurial aspirations can thrive and innovative ideas can take flight.
Additionally, the Mines Venture Program, located within Beck, provides startups with essential support for their journey to launch. This comprehensive program boasts a top-tier network of mentors and advisors, demo days and “look books” to spotlight startups to potential investors and facilitate access to a curated network of service providers.
Mike and Kelly Beck, seeing our growing emphasis on programs and facilities devoted to entrepreneurship and innovation, were the first to point out our need for a business venture center – a facility where the translation of research innovations to successful products and businesses happens.
