CTNext’s Talent Bridge Program (TTB) deadline has been extended to January 20! TTB is an opportunity for innovation-driven companies in Connecticut to source additional funding for the hire of student interns. The program is designed to:
-Excite soon-to-graduate students about the opportunities working in CT’s innovation ecosystem
-Entice companies to hire students locally based on an appreciation of the skill-depth and industry knowledge of TTB participants
-Provide hands-on learning experiences for students that are keen on working in specific industries
-Strengthen the operating capacity of innovation-driven companies that can draw on TTB talent throughout the duration of the internship.
Through the Talent Bridge program, funds of up to $25,000 are available to cover the hourly costs of student interns at the rate of $20/hour for undergraduate and $25/hour for graduate students. A company match up to $10,000 is required based upon funding request.
