ITSCE Fund Membership

Get Access to Innovations Before Everyone Else!

Whether you want to discover emerging science, access new products, or explore investment opportunities, ITSCE Fund provides a pathway to engage with innovation before it reaches the broader marketplace.

ITSCE Fund is built around a simple idea: promising science should have a pathway to the marketplace. Through connections among researchers, students, universities, businesses, sponsors, and investors, ITSCE Fund supports an ecosystem where scientific discoveries can advance toward practical applications and commercial opportunities. Membership gives you a way to engage with that ecosystem according to your interests.

The future of innovation begins long before a product reaches the marketplace. Become an ITSCE Fund member and gain early access to scientific innovations, emerging products, and eligible commercialization opportunities before they are revealed or made available to the general public for investment.

Discover the innovation. Explore the opportunity. Connect with what comes next.

Why membership

What is the advantage of a membership?

Imagine discovering a promising innovation before the public knows it exists. By the time the opportunity is announced, the available participation spots may already be filled and you could miss your chance to be involved.

That's the advantage of being an ITSCE Fund member: early access can put you in a position to explore opportunities before they become widely available.

Across Africa, scientists are developing promising innovations with the potential to transform industries and create new economic opportunities. Through the Africa America Beauty Alliance (AABA) and its university partners, ITSCE Fund is building a pathway for the public to discover these innovations early and, where eligible opportunities are available, participate in their potential financial success through commercialization.

You don't have to be the scientist behind the discovery to explore an opportunity to be part of its journey to market.
