The Future Fund is “committed to investing in early-stage companies, with an emphasis on underrepresented founders,” Connecticut Innovations said in an announcement Thursday. The Future Fund will provide investments ranging from $250,000 to $1.5 million and will introduce early-stage companies to a network of investors. The fund will give priority to “disruptive startups in the largest and growing markets.” Connecticut Innovations will host a launch event this spring.
