The ICEHOUSE Internships

Following a successful and impactful visit by Bill Payne, the ICEHOUSE has identified the opportunity to tighten the connection between its start-up incubator and angel investment network in order to enable more of its start-ups to become investment ready. Bill Payne’s visit also enlightened the ICEHOUSE to the value of the support provided by interns and the fantastic experience the interns are afforded through their support roles. As a result, the Foundation for Research, Science, and Technology has agreed to support two ICEHOUSE “Funding Focused” interns.
