Now Open: Los Alamos Makers Entrepreneur-in-Residence (EIR) Program

Los Alamos Makers is launching a flexible Entrepreneur-in-Residence (EIR) program for scientists, engineers, creative-tech founders, and independent innovators who want space to explore, build, and test ideas — without the constraints of a traditional incubator.

This is a low-friction, high-flexibility residency:
• No equity
• No rigid cohorts
• No startup hype
• Real projects, real tools, real momentum

The EIR program is designed for people who want to experiment, prototype, and move ideas forward at their own pace — especially those navigating early translation, side projects, or pre-company exploration.
