The Cambridge Innovation Center (CIC), based out of 3675 Market St., is opening applications up for the second cohort of its 36for75 program, which will house local startups for 75 days while they grow, and encourage collaboration between local entrepreneurs.

The first run of the campaign started earlier this year, and had to go virtual when the pandemic hit Philadelphia. CIC remained open for its clients who were engaged in COVID-19 research, and in June, reopened to others with new safety protocols. CIC extended the program three more months to give additional time to the 2020 cohort to connect with each other and collaborate.

For the 2021 cohort, CIC is seeking out 36 “life-altering, risk-taking entrepreneurs” who need a safe workspace and support. Entrepreneurs who are from underrepresented communities and industries that are not already represented by CIC clients (like foodtech, fintech, software developers and international companies) are especially encouraged to apply.
