## About Humble Ventures

Humble Ventures is a venture collective that helps universities, startups, and enterprises diagnose opportunities, run lean experiments, and scale what works, combining seasoned operators with AI-powered tools. Its venture acceleration offering gives founders hands-on support, access to funding, and a hybrid model built to learn fast and scale faster.

It designs and operates innovation programs and accelerators that build cohorts that learn fast and launch stronger. PitchHU provides founder training and startup development, TechHU runs technology commercialization and startup acceleration, and WPI ICORPs delivers research commercialization and entrepreneurial education, alongside large-scale experiential programming at events such as SXSW.

PitchHU has unlocked $185,000 in non-dilutive funding for its startups. Humble also helps researchers turn patents into stories that attract partners and investors, and its Humanumation loop of diagnose, design, deliver, and learn guides each engagement, supported by a pledge to prioritize speed to insight over polish and change course when the data changes.

It also joins client teams as fractional leaders and operators, produces short-form content and PR campaigns through Smartest Studio and SPARKS, and builds software including Humble Home, Flow, Horizon, and IP Scaffold. Clients and partners include WPI, Merck, Howard University, DC Government, MLB, and Ogilvy.
