About the program
Launch Tennessee is the state's public-private entrepreneurship partnership, working with the Tennessee Department of Economic and Community Development to fund and coordinate a statewide network of entrepreneur centers. Healthcare is one of Tennessee's priority sectors and LaunchTN funds commercialization awards and network partners including Nashville and Memphis health-focused programs. It is a funder and coordinator rather than a direct accelerator.
