Catalyst for Innovation

Mission Statement

The mission of AZAdvances™ is to provide entrepreneurial education and support, including grants and mission related investments into Arizona life science companies, that help to advance life changing and life saving products and services along the path from discovery to development to delivery.

Purpose

Arizona  life science innovators are discovering, developing and delivering new products and services that will help to keep us healthy and help our physicians care for us.

Today, Arizona lacks sufficient funding to support our early-stage life science companies and to keep them growing here in our state. AZAdvances was created to specifically designed to address this need.

Once capitalized, the AZAdvances Today Fund™ will provide support to Arizona-based life science innovators (grants to nonprofits and loans or equity investment to early stage life science companies) while the AZAdvances Legacy Endowment™  will grow the core capital over time so that as the need for future funding grows, so does our capacity.

Donors providing endowed gifts have the option for deposits to be designated to either the AZAdvances Legacy Endowment or the Arizona Health Innovation Trust Fund  which is established within the Arizona State treasurer's office with the Treasurer as Trustee. 

Structure

AZAdvances is a division of the Opportunity Through Entrepreneurship Foundation (OTEF). An Arizona-based 501c3 public charity, OTEF was established in 2005 to provide entrepreneurial education, mentoring and support to individuals and organizations based in Arizona.

Donations and other funding received for AZAdvances are maintained as separate accounts within OTEF.

AZAdvances is designed so that it can to make an impact today and for generations to come.
