Sample data — nothing here is a real person or a real venture

Which office are you?

The same platform serves two jobs on a campus. Pick the one closest to yours.

Entrepreneurship centre

Ecosystem Manager

Startup teams, prize money, events and the reporting that keeps a centre funded.

  • Venture teams, their stage and who is on them
  • I-Corps cohorts and event registration
  • Patents and federal awards, per investigator
  • Grant reporting with the evidence attached
Office of the VP for Research

Research Development

Solicitations, who is going after what, and the deadlines in between.

  • Live solicitations from the funding newsletter
  • Applications in flight, against the office's own deadlines
  • Awards, by agency or by faculty member
  • Limited submissions where only one proposal may go

The centre demo is the working product against fabricated data. The research office is a mockup: the solicitations in it are real, taken from a funding opportunities newsletter, and everything else — the faculty, the proposals, the awards — is invented, with no backend behind it.
