“This year marks our 40th year since ATDC’s founding and we’re proud of legacy of working with entrepreneurs to help them learn, launch, scale, and succeed in building great technology companies in Georgia,” said ATDC Director John Avery.

Startups at ATDC also receive direct support from some of incubator’s partners, such as the Georgia Research Alliance, which provides seed investments. The startup companies also may receive funding from a number of federal sponsors, including the National Science Foundation, Department of Energy, Department of Defense, and National Institutes of Health, among others.
