Source Summary
The OSU Advantage Accelerator, launched in 2013, supports commercialization of research-based ventures. Its page says it serves research faculty, postdoctoral scholars, graduate students, and community members with mentorship and intern support. The student-resources page adds that undergraduate and graduate students can use Advantage innovation resources, including a paid Advantage Accelerator internship and the Next Great Startup competition for student-led teams.
Claims Supported
The accelerator page does not state a student stipend or equity percentage. A 2018 news release described a Next Great Startup purse above $70,000. That 2018 figure is not used as the current amount.
Evidence Limits
Point-in-time notes from official pages observed on 2026-10-08. Deadlines, prize amounts, and eligibility can change. This record is not a school-verified or director-verified listing.
