Funding Partners
Triangle Venture Alliance
North Carolina State University, along with UNC-Chapel Hill and Duke University, have created the Triangle Venture Alliance (TVA). In May of 2015, Duke University launched the Duke Capital Partners (DCP), and in December 2016, UNC-Chapel launched the Carolina Angel Network (CAN). The three Triangle-area universities have partnered to build a network of angel groups that will co-invest in deals where there is a connection to more than one school on the management team. The alliance received grants from the U.S. Economic Development Administration and from NC Idea in 2015 and 2016 to foster this collaboration.
