Sponsorship Package 2011
Global Business Incubation, Inc. (GBI), a US non-profit 501(c)(3) corporation that promotes a unique "zero-time" business accelerator culture for start-up companies, entrepreneurs and small businesses in software technology (game development), multimedia, entertainment and other peripheral industries.
GBI was founded in 1991 in partnership with Loyola Marymount University, College of Business Administration, as a spin-off of the CSBD Foundation.
GBI, a non-profit organization consisting of colleges, universities, government, industry and community organizations, was originally established as a virtual network "partnership" dedicated to linking California businesses to emerging technology and effectively channeling it toward marketing and manufacturing opportunities.
About GBI
• The Semantic Seed program was established in 2008 by the founders of Urban Technology Ventures, and Break through Ventures after the company’s founder’s observations of first time entrepreneurs struggling to find funding from angel investors and venture capitalist to hatch ideas. Semantic Seed is a special kind of co working space and idea accelerator that cares more about funding “Good People” than your resume credentials and your business plan.
• The Labs mission is to become a catalyst for early stage companies to graduate into venture capital ready companies. Start-ups and entrepreneurs can capitalize on the experience, skills and networks that Semantic Seed can provide to streamline development and accelerate commercialization of ideas
• We help entrepreneurs go from the idea stage to a real company with a product or service generating revenue. To attract these young entrepreneurs, the team set up an advisory board “Think Tank” of mentor entrepreneurs with hands on operating experience. We will also partner with Universities, and enterprises to identify budding ideas.
