Technology Ventures Corporation was a nonprofit organization established in 1993 by Lockheed Martin, dedicated to the commercialization of federally funded technologies. Its mission focused on fostering the development of startups emerging from national laboratories and research universities, aiming to create jobs and stimulate business formation in the technology sector. By connecting innovators, entrepreneurs, and investors, Technology Ventures Corporation facilitated the transformation of laboratory inventions into market-ready products. The organization provided support to entrepreneurs in strengthening their business models and securing funding from equity investors, thereby delivering value to both startups and investors. However, Technology Ventures Corporation ceased its operations in April 2017.
