MassTech Intern Partnership (MTIP)
Massachusetts Technology Collaborative (MassTech)
The MassTech Intern Partnership (MTIP) program provides stipends to digital technology companies that are starting and scaling-up across Massachusetts to directly support internships for Massachusetts college and graduate students. The program helps drive innovation by keeping the tech sector dynamic, vibrant, and growing across the Commonwealth. Interns gain valuable work experience, skills, and professional connections in the Commonwealth. Companies can be reimbursed for up to 50% of the intern’s hourly wage up to $8 per hour for a total of $3,200/year per individual intern. Any technology start-up with 100 or fewer employees located in Massachusetts is eligible for up to two interns per period. In 2020, eligible companies in the priority focus areas of Cybersecurity, Digital Health, Fintech, Internet of Things (IoT), and Robotics may apply for up to three interns per program period. All interns must be compensated as employees, not contractors, with required payroll withholdings.
