Our Community

Life Science and Environmental Companies

Harbor Launch at the Institute of Marine and Environmental Technology (IMET) is community for science and science support companies, with a focus on life science and environmental technology startups.

Why a startup incubator? Harbor Launch was founded in 2016 to provide resources to spinouts and external startups. It is just one part of IMET's innovation ecosystem. At the end of the day, Harbor Launch helps IMET more fully realize its economic development mission.

Harbor Launch connects companies with the resources of its partner institutions (UMCES, UMBC, and UMB), the University System of Maryland, and IMET's world-class researchers.
