Alchemist Chicago, a premier early-stage startup accelerator focused on foundational technology, is a partnership between Alchemist and the University of Chicago’s Polsky Center for Entrepreneurship and Innovation.

Up to 30 startups will be selected to participate in a Polsky Center Startup Bootcamp from which a select group of up to 10 will be chosen to continue through Alchemist Accelerator’s flagship global program.

The Polsky Center draws on the University of Chicago’s leading research in the sciences, national laboratory affiliations, and partnership with the top-ranked Booth School of Business to help startups reduce risk as they position their innovations for real-world impact.
