If selected, fellows would receive a growth-track position in an innovation-based Connecticut company, a $5,000 grant and enrollment in a career development program.

GIF, which launched in Stamford in 2020, and helped fellows secure positions with such companies as Henkel, Octagon and Synchrony, is expanding to offer opportunities statewide in companies in bioscience and pharmaceuticals, meditech, fintech, data analytics, advanced manufacturing and more.
