Back in September of 2021, LINEA System LLC, a leader in accelerating clinical trial study start-up, announced that it had been awarded the Founders First Job Creators Quest Grant in Pennsylvania/New Jersey. The Grant consisted of a monetary award as well as a full-tuition scholarship to Founders First’s Bootcamp accelerator program exclusively for diverse founders. The Bootcamp finished in April and culminated with a pitch competition.

The Impact of the Job Creators Grant on LINEA System, LLC
The impact of the Job Creators Grant on LINEA has been astonishing. We have been able to prioritize expansion. Our team has grown and the resources of the LINEA team has expanded to further develop the company and the mission to revolutionize clinical trials. As Kathleen Colatrella, CEO and Founder of LINEA System reported with Founders First,
“The job creators grant through Founders First has helped us significantly. We were able to actually bring some new sales reps onto the team and put those funds toward training to equip them with the information and the tools that they need to be able to continually get the word out for the awareness of our program and our software.”
Not only has the Job Creators Grant provided a pillar to develop our mission financially but also through knowledge. The program provided us a voice and resource to further express our intentions and objectives. Since the program has ended, LINEA has experienced growth and a firmer foundation. As Colatrella stated to Founders First,
“We were able to pitch clearly our intentions and projections to three different investment companies and we’ve been invited for a second round for two out of three.
We’re looking to secure funds, and I think that Founders First prepared us well to be very clear on what is that we are offering, what is the opportunity for any investor and then how they can partner with us to make this company grow.”
